Baby im going out of town to handle some business For a few days But don't you worry 'Cause I'll call you Like it's not Long distance 'Cause I hate being away I hate being away from you I gotta go Even though I don't want to I'd rather stay Than to be away from you Since absence Has been known to Make the heart grow fonder Then you know That I miss you And this song Is just a reminder I hate being away I hate being away from you I've gotta go even though I don't want to I'd rather stay Than be away from you I can't wait to see your smiling face And cuddle up in front of the fireplace I'd rather stay Than be away from you Sometimes I find myself Reaching for you When talking on the phone Is all we can do But it won't be long until I'm back to you I'm counting the seconds The minutes The hours The days Until we're face to face 'Cause I hate being away I hate being away from you I gotta go even though I don't want to I'd rather stay than to be away from you I can't wait to see your smiling face And cuddle up in front of the fireplace I'd rather stay than be away from you I hate being away from you I gotta go even though I don't want to I'd rather stay than to be away from you I can't wait to see your smiling face And cuddle up in front of the fireplace I'd rather stay than be away from you
