[Verse 1]
Well Jamie gets home from work
Puts a record on
Fixes up the dinner
Waits for Lilly to come
She's been teaching all day
She's got papers to mark
She agrees with the kids
When it comes to homework
But there's a veggie lasagna
Left from last night
She could warm it up
Do a little salad on the side
She lays the table
Pours two glasses of juice
She hears her coming up the stairs
Her key goes in the lock
Then Lilly gets home from work
Kicks off her shoes
She smiles at Jamie and it lights up the room
She's just back from the hospital
Another double shift
She knew that nursing wasn't gonna be easy
But she wasn't expecting this
In fact the only thing
That got her through today
Was knowing she'd be coming home to Jamie again
