I hate to leave your party
And these friendly people here
But I don't fit in
With all that's going on
Your love's an invitation
But I can't go along
Cause when I want to love a lady
I go home
I go home to love a lady
She's waiting up for me
A lady who has spent the night alone
No other man has touched her
She saves her love for me
When I want to love a lady
I go home
It would be so easy
To live just for tonight
Yet I know to love you
Would be wrong
So I won't accept your offer
Although temptation's strong
When I want to love a lady
I go home
I go home to love a lady
She's waiting up for me
A lady who has spent the night alone
No other man has touched her
She saves her love for me
So when I want to love a lady
I go home
