To tell the truth, it's really such a sad affair
Standing here, waiting in the cold night air
But I've got to make this call
'Cause my heart is breakingI hear the pips, drop a coin in the slot
Has it been that long? I thought you'd forgotten me
Well, I know that it's getting late
But I just couldn't waitWill I have the nerve to say
I just wanna come back?
You shouldn't just go away
I just wanna come backI've been struck by such a bad luck
I need a place, a little happiness and some love
I think, I can see it now
Now let me paint the pictureIt's twelve o'clock and the curtains are drawn
They're counting sheep down in Orchard road
You're hanging on the telephone line tonight
And I wish, I could be in Orchard roadNot much been happening here
I think I've got a job, they're gonna call me next week
And I'll be working out of town
But it's sure beats hanging aroundWhat's that? Tomorrow at two
You're kidding me, no, is it alright with you?
I don't know what to say
It'll be like a holidayWhen you say you're all alone
Makes me wanna come back
And this house is not a home
I just gotta go backIt's twelve ten when I put down the phone
Moon's shining down on Orchard road
And I'm feeling like a schoolboy again
And tonight, I'll see you in my dreams of Orchard roadIt's funny, but I thought I'd never go back
I think sometimes I might loose track
But I remember you and the things we do
I want it backIn Orchard road, you've got my heart
I left it in your doorway
In Orchard road, a welcome back
Is waiting there just for meIn Orchard road, the sun will shine
Again I know, I know
In Orchard road, you keep my love
Just waiting there for meIt's eight o'clock and the dawn's arrived
Orchard road it's breakfast time
I climb in my car and I turn the key and I'm gone
I am coming home to Orchard road
I'm coming home
