Been away from each other most of the summer
I'm counting down the days in my mind
Till we come back together
I'll be feeling better
And we can make up for lost time

Whenever I'm gone for too long
I can hear you calling me home
Honey, when it gets tough, don't give up
It's the price we pay to be in love

Though I'm feeling alone
I know I'm not on my own

Home for a season
Soon I'll be leaving
And doing it all over again

So I'll unpack my suitcase
See the look on your face
Laughing at me trying to pretend

Whenever I'm gone for too long
I can hear you calling me home
Honey, when it gets tough, don't give up
It's the price we pay to be in love
Though I'm feeling alone
I know I'm not on my own

And it's a feeling I hope I don't get over
When I'm away, I only want to be closer
Sometimes it hurts to keep your heart wide open

But it's worth every twist and turn of emotion
Even though I'm feeling alone

Whenever I'm gone for too long
I can hear you calling me home
Honey, when it gets tough, don't give up
It's the price we pay to be in love
Though I'm feeling alone
I know I'm not on my own
I'm alone but I know I'm not on my own
