Sleeping With The Telephone (Faith Hill)

Faith: I knew who he was when I took his name But somehow knowin' It's just not the same late at night He knows the danger But he does what he does He calls it duty But I call it love So here I am While he's gone To some foreign land Both: And I cry Cause im all alone And the nights gets so cold and long And I try not to think he won't come home But I'm sleeping with the telephone Reba: The yellow ribbon on my neighbor's gate Always reminds me that someone's awake Just like me I hear sirens And I watch the news He laughs and leaves with his gun And his blue uniform And I pray God keeps him safe from harm Both: And I cry Cause im all alone And the nights get so cold and long And I try not to think he won't come home But I'm sleeping with the telephone Reba: I can lose him in my darkest dreams Faith: And my blood runs cold And my heart skips a beat Reba: So I get up I can't take anymore Both: Sometimes I hate how much I love him But everyday I love him more Both: And I try not to think he won't come home But I'm sleeping with the telephone Reba: Something awakes me from where he should be I reach for him....The telephone rings
