A long way we have travelledJust to see your name in lightsWe're writing you this letter'Cos we're with you tonightYour Mama misses you soAnd your Papa wants you to knowThat babeWe want you to have your sayWe don't want to stand in your way
The last time that we saw youAnd we heard those curtain callsWe held hands and we loved youAnd we shouted for moreYour Mama she misses you soAnd your Papa wants you to knowThat babe (baby) we want you to have (baby) your say (baby)We don't want to stand in your way (baby)
But call us and sayWhen you're passing this wayAnd let us still know that you careClean sheets on the bed in your roomAnd a place at the table and in our hearts
Every night is a first night for someoneSomeone's making their debutOn starry eyes the curtain will rise
Your Mama she misses you soAnd your Papa wants you to knowThat babe (baby)We want you to have (baby) your say (baby)We don't want to stand in your way (baby)
But call us and sayWhen you're passing this wayAnd let us still know that you careClean sheets on the bed in your roomAnd a place at the table and in our hearts
