Story behind the song
Wrote it to the wife on a former day job I was working from noon to 9:00.
Lyrics
When I'm alone at work I think of you, I get so lonely that I wish I wasn't here tonight. I often daydream when the work gets slow, And nine o'clock can't come around as fast as I would like. I really miss the time together; I miss the holdin' each other tight. When I come home I want for ever To be the time for us tonight. (Chorus) I don't wanna be here tonight; I just wanna be there where you are. I don't wanna be here tonight; I wanna be with you, my lover. I don't wanna be here tonight; I wanna be home to hold you tight. Tight tonight, tight tonight! I'm punchin' out. The time I spend at work goes way too slow; If I could turn back time, I'd set it back about five years. How good it felt when I was there much more And felt your heart, your soul, your arms, that wiped away the tears. I never felt a love so tender, I never felt a love so true, And my heart was always broken, Until the day I met with you. (Repeat Chorus) Twelve to nine goes by too slow When I am workin' nights. Every time I come home to your love, there's a light. Despite the loneliness I feel, I know your love is there, Waiting for my face to enter. I don't wanna be here, I don't wanna be here. No! (Final Chorus) I don't wanna be here tonight; I just wanna be there where you are. I don't wanna be here tonight; I wanna be with you, my lover. I don't wanna be here tonight; I wanna be home to hold you tight. Tight tonight, tight tonight, tight tonight! I'm punchin' out.
