If I Lived Here (i'd Be Home Now)

IF I LIVED HERE (I'D BE HOME NOW)
(Bill Anderson)
'68 Stallion Music
RECORDED BY DEL REEVES

You don't know how I've enjoyed these past few hours
The candle light the dinner and the drinks
Your lips were never quite so warm and tender
I hold you close and I can't help but think
If I lived here I'd be home now
I'd take off my shoes lie down and just relax
If I lived here I'd be home now
But I don't and he does and he'll soon be coming back
I wish that was my name on your mailbox
I could play and tussle with the kids
We'd all dress up for church on Sunday morning
Oh why did he meet you before I did
If I lived here I'd be home now
We could stay like this forever and a day
If I lived here I'd be home now
But I don't and he does and I'd best be on my way
