Nazareth. Sad to be alone. Your only comfort is the telephone. Homesick again. Thoughts of far away. Silence is the only way to say. Ain't it a shame. Whatâ€™s goin' down she don't understand. Can't you be with her every night. Why must it be you're away so long. But she plays along and it's alright. People all around. You donâ€™t see or hear them make a sound. It's not the same. Whatâ€™s goin' down she donâ€™t understand. Can't you be with her every night. Why must it be you're away so long. But she plays along and it's alright. Countinâ€™ out the days. That don't help to ease the days away. The price you pay. Homesick again. (WORDS AND MUSIC BY NAZARETH).
