Duke Ellington feat. Joya Sherrill Lyrics
"He's Home For A Little While"

He's home for a little while
He's mine once again
No need to tell, but it feels simply swell
With him close to me
Where he's supposed to be
He's home for a little while
I lived for his kiss; I hit the skies
When he looks in my eyes
And my knees grow weak with bliss
He's sort of changed
He's kind of different
From the boy I used to know a while ago
Strange how much he says without a word
And when he holds my hand I understand
I'm his, but for ever more
He's mine, mine alone
We'll have to part
But he's close to my heart
For the little while he's home
