Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro ] [Verse 1] They sat together to watch TV, She didn't take long to fall asleep, Both have had a hard day at work, Now he doesn't know how to tell her, He got sad news which really hurt, A call from the doctors surgery, There's tests they need to do to see, So he just prepares for the worst, [Chorus] He's sitting in the waiting room, When the doctor calls him in, I'm sorry it's not good news, He said you ain't got long, Now the good lord is calling me, HOME!!!!!! [Verse 2] He goes back home to his wife, To share with her the bad news, She cries out lord o'mighty why, Is there anything we can try or do, The doctor said that it's too late, There's nothing to do but wait, Now her tears run down her cheek, He said darling don't cry for me, [Chorus] [Bridge] Now this sure can be a cruel world, He wasn't there for the birth of that little girl, She goes and visits her Daddy's grave, And says I do wish dad you were here, To watch me get married today, As she slowly wipes away the tears, [Chorus] [Outro] [Spoken word] With a letter that he had left, Are his words that were unsaid, Baby girl you know I'm looking down, My little darling I'm so mighty proud, Someday you and I will get to meet, I know your mum has told you all about me, And I will See you when, The lord calls you, HOME!!!!! HOME!!!! [Fade to end]
