Eyes focused on the clock

Time slowly ticking away

Minutes seem like hours

Hours like days

Waiting till the clock strikes five

An hour passes, oh my god

It's only been an hour

Since I pried myself away

From your strong, loving arms

Seven more hours and I'll be home

Drifting off into outer space

Thinking about when I reach home

Another hour ticks away

One o'clock, time for lunch

Daydreaming of your warm strong arms

Wrapping around my skin, soft as silk

The lunch hour almost over

Snapping out of this daydream

Heading back to the office

Watching the clock as it stays on three

Thinking to myself

Two more hours, I focus back on my work

Diving back in, working hard

Not thinking about the time

I hear my office mates

Closing doors and saying goodbye

I look at the clock, now a half past five

I grab my bag, turn off the light

Rushing past some that stop to chat

Running to the door, racing to the car

Digging in my bag, pulling out my keys

Driving fast, obeying all the laws

Pulling into the driveway

I barely get it in, park

Before I jump out

Slamming the door

Rushing up the steps, onto the porch

To the big oak door

Fumbling with my keys

I hear you laugh as the door swings open

Looking up, my eyes meet yours

Seeing you standing there holding your arm out

I drop my stuff as I walk into your awaiting arms

Your strong arms wrapping around me

Pulling me close

For I am now

Safe in your arms again

You lift me, carrying me to the sofa

Arms around me as we sit and cuddle

Kissing your cheek

Say I love you

As I sit safe in your arms
