That I knew what to do
Stoke the fire, read a book
With this missin' you heart of mine
Give the storm another look
Give the storm another look
Just to keep my hands and mind occupied
You heart of mine
You heart of mine
You'll be gone a long time
Just to keep my hands and mind occupied
She says, "Try back later"
Stoke the fire, read a book
With this missin' you heart of mine
But it's colder knowin'
And if you'll just listen
Oh, tonight, I just wish
That I knew what to do
Oh, tonight, I just wish
Just to keep my hands and mind occupied
Give the storm another look
It don't help this missin'
Oh, tonight, I just wish
I get the operator
I keep tryin' to call
The weather man's right
You can hear this missin'
There's a mean storm hissin'
With this missin' you heart of mine
That I knew what to do
There's trouble on the line
I'll sing it to the night
Stoke the fire, read a book
