Wanda Jackson — As The Day Wears On

Right now, he's looking for his pants and socks Can't find the car keys on the dresser top He'll spill his milk and leave it on the kitchen floor And as the day wears on, he'll miss me more and more He'll go to work without a kiss from me It'll cross his mind he said I'd never leave Forget his coat and catch a death of cold And as the day wears on, he'll miss me more and more He'll tell the guys he's bothered not at all Then drink his lunch, so he won't have to call He'll tell himself "I'm home" like the day before But as the day wears on, he'll doubt it more and more He'll come home to a house that's dark and quiet And have to face another sleepless night He'll watch TV and read and walk the floor And as the day wears on, he'll miss me more and more And then he'll phone and ask me to come home That things have gone to pieces 'cause I'm gone His phone call is all I'm waiting for 'Cause as the day wears on, I'll miss him more and more 'Cause as the day wears on, I'll miss him more and more
