Paris Can't Have You

Dear, lover
 It's been seven weeks and a day and 22 hours
 Since you stepped on a plane and left me with flowers
 The Champs-Elysées, a whole world away from home
 Where I lay, lonely bones
 And I wait by the phone
 Your night is my day when you are so far away
 And it's hard to sleep all alone
 If you're feeling tempted to stay, listen to me when I say
 That Paris can't have you
 'Cause Los Angeles needs you home
 Oh, honey, how much longer now 'til you've done what you went to do?
 I am strong but there are some things, without you
 That lie here undone and I have begun
 To fancy the night of your landing
 When I'll have my man
 But until then
 Your night is my day when you are so far away
 And it's hard to sleep all alone
 If you're feeling tempted to stay, listen to me when I say
 That Paris can't have you
 'Cause Los Angeles needs you home
