[Verse 1]
Out in the city, walking around like I'm fine on my own
But in reality, this isn't easy out in the cold
Ever since he left his side of the bed, [? 0:24]
So sick of waiting, losing my patience, sat by the phone

[Pre-Chorus]
And when we speak
Come let me know how much he's hurting me
So please

[Chorus]
Can someone send me my lover?
I really need him home
I last saw him in the summer
Down in Mexico
If it's only for the night
I take what I can get, no, I don't mind
Oh, can someone send me my lover?
I really need him home

[Verse 2]
He's sent a postcard, he's driving a Mustang down to the coast
Oh, he said, "It's not long, darling, just hold on, I miss you the most"

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Boy, when we speak
He hears how much it's really hurting me
So, please
[Chorus]
Can someone send me my lover?
I really need him home
I last saw him in the summer
Down in Mexico
If it's only for the night
I take what I can get, no, I don't mind
Oh, can someone send me my lover?
I really need him home

[Bridge]
Oh, please send me my love
Please send me my love
Please send him home
Oh, please send me my love
Please send me my love
Please send him home

[Chorus]
Can someone send me my lover?
I really need him home
I last saw him in the summer
Down in Mexico
If it's only for the night
I take what I can get, no, I don't mind
Oh, can someone send me my lover?
I really need him home
[Outro]
I really need him home
I really need him home
