Walkin' Back - B.J. Thomas

Tonight’s the night

I swore I’d return with ecstasy

With fortune and fame

'Cause I’d made myself a name

And they’d be so proud of me

Tonight they’re waiting at the airport

I’m not on the plane

'Cause I’m walking back

Empty hearted

To the place

Where it all started

Never been so long alone

I wanna go home

Could it be

My baby still has faith in me

Could it be true

After all she’s been through

She’s still waiting for me

For since I’ve gone I haven’t heard

One encouraging word

'Cause I’m walking back

Empty hearted

To the place

Where it all started

Never been so long alone

I wanna go home

Oh I’ve never been so long alone

I wanna go home

No I never never been so long alone

I wanna go home

No I never never been so long alone
