Lyrics
Uploaded bynct.phongdq
All the bedroom lights go out as the neighborhood gets quiet
Everything in heaven and earth is almost right
But there's a wife who's wondering where her husband could be tonight
And when the phone rang only once she took a dreadful fright Little things just seem to undermine her confidence in him
He was late this time last week
Who can she turn to when the chance of coincidence is slim
'Cause the baby isn't old enough to speak There's been a long honeymoon, she thought too late and spoke too soon
There's no money back guarantee on future happiness
There's been a long honeymoon, if he's out on a date then her life's in ruins
She never thought her love could ever be as strong as this All the movies and the papers, feature the murders of lonely women
If he isn't in by ten she'll call up her best friend
Why doesn't he come home? Why does her friends phone keep on ringing?
Maybe she should just pretend There's been a long honeymoon, she thought too late and spoke too soon
There's no money back guarantee on future happiness
There's been a long honeymoon, if he's out on a date then her life's in ruins
She never thought her love could ever be as strong as this
Everything in heaven and earth is almost right
But there's a wife who's wondering where her husband could be tonight
And when the phone rang only once she took a dreadful fright Little things just seem to undermine her confidence in him
He was late this time last week
Who can she turn to when the chance of coincidence is slim
'Cause the baby isn't old enough to speak There's been a long honeymoon, she thought too late and spoke too soon
There's no money back guarantee on future happiness
There's been a long honeymoon, if he's out on a date then her life's in ruins
She never thought her love could ever be as strong as this All the movies and the papers, feature the murders of lonely women
If he isn't in by ten she'll call up her best friend
Why doesn't he come home? Why does her friends phone keep on ringing?
Maybe she should just pretend There's been a long honeymoon, she thought too late and spoke too soon
There's no money back guarantee on future happiness
There's been a long honeymoon, if he's out on a date then her life's in ruins
She never thought her love could ever be as strong as this
