Sleeping With The Telephone lyrics

I knew who he was when I took his name
But somehow knowing is 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

And I cry cos I'm all alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he wont come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/f/faith_hill/sleeping_with_the_telephone.html ]
The yellow ribbon on my neighbours gate
He laughs and leaves with his gun and his blue uniform
And I pray god keeps him safe from harm

And I cry cos I'm all alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he wont come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone

I lose him in my darkest dreams
And my blood runs cold and my heart skips a beat
So I get up, I can't take any more
Sometimes I hate how much I love him
But every day I love him more

And I try not to think he wont come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone

Something awakes me from where he should be
I reach for him, the telephone rings
