When You Get Back

The world belongs around you That's something to belong to You've got something missing in me You left the life of virtue To them that might deserve you And drifted out to sea You left your home in haste How I longed to keep you safe And lately I don't mind the mixed company Lately I don't mind, cause you promised me You'd call me when you get back You'd call me when you get back You'd call me when you get back And we'll leave it at that Time's allied most seldom With those in need of helping So much love I never will set free Letter after letter I felt you knew me better So I listened when you said to let it be Twist your hair, and I'll call it mine Wear me thin as a lucky dime But lately I don't mind when I hear about Lately I don't mind who you bring around I know you'll call me when you get back You'll call me when you get back You'll call me when you get back And we'll leave it at that The world rolls on around you So lucky to have found you
