He's been sittin'

By the phone

Since she left

But it's time for work

And he just

Can't be late

So he grabs his

Old guitar

And he plays

A couple bars

On the machine

And then he

Softly sings

It doesn't matter

What you've done

I still love you

It doesn't matter

Where you've been

You can still

Come home

And honey if it's you

We've got a lot

Of makin' up to do

And I can't hug you

On the phone

So hurry home

Well the message light

Was blinkin'

When he got back

It was an old friend

Callin'

'cause he just heard

The news

He said man I hope

You find her

If I see her

I'll remind her

That her dad

Is worried

And wantin' her

To know

It doesn't matter

What you've done

I still love you

It doesn't matter

Where you've been

You can still

Come home

And honey if it's you

We've got a lot

Of makin' up to do

And I can't hug you

On the phone

So hurry home

Well the days

Dragged by

Without a word

From her

And it looked like

She might not be

Comin' back

People said man

Don't you think

It's time

To take that old

Message off

And he said no

You never know

When she might call

She was just outside

A bar

In new york city

Her so called friends

Had left her

All alone

She was scared

He wouldn't want her

But she dialed up

That old number

And let it ring

And then she heard

Him sing

It doesn't matter

What you've done

I still love you

It doesn't matter

Where you've been

You can still

Come home

And honey if it's you

We've got a lot

Of makin' up to do

And I can't hug you

On the phone

So hurry home

He walked in

Just in time

To hear her say

Dad I'm on my way
