Eagerly

You are coming home to me
and boy, can I can hardly wait
all night I have been watching the minute hand
counting down the seconds hoping
that you won't be late

I'm capable of filling my time
with busy-ness and daydreams
but something about watching you
in your resting state
all relaxed and (with me)

Eagerly I sit here on the couch
awaiting to hear your car horn sound
counting the paces you take to the stairwell
as you ascend to our humble abode
how is it that you have this effect on me
like a child on Christmas morning
are my eyes when your hand turns the nob
you have come home to me
and eagerly
I'll have you in my arms once more
