Lyrics

Come
And talk of all the things we did today
Hear
And laugh about our funny little ways
While we have a few minutes
To breathe
And I know that it's time
You must leave
Oh, but darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
I couldn't bear to wait
An extra minute if you dawdled
And my darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
It's not just these few hours
That I've been waiting since you toddled
For the great relief of
Having you to talk to
(Talk to)
(Talk to)
And now
A quarter of my life is almost past
I think I've come to see myself at last
And I see that the time
Spent confused
Was the time that I spent
Without you
And I feel myself in bloom
Oh, but darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
I couldn't bear to wait
An extra minute if you dawdled
My darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
It's not just these few hours
But I've been waiting since you toddled
For the great relief of
Having you to talk to
(Talk to)
(Talk to)
Yeah
Oh, but darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
I couldn't bear to wait
An extra minute if you dawdled, yeah
Oh, my darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
It's not just these few hours
But I've been waiting since you toddled
For the great relief of
Having you to talk to
(Talk to)
(Talk to)
Go
(Go)
And beat your crazy head against the sky
(Beat your head against the sky)
Try
And see beyond the houses in your eyes
It's so gray out to shoot the moon
Oh, my darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
I couldn't bear to wait
An extra minute if you dawdled
And my darling be home soon
(Darling, be home soon)
It's not just these few hours
But I've been waiting since you toddled
For the great relief of
Having you to talk to
(Someone to talk to)
For the great relief of
Having you to talk to
(Someone to talk to)
For the great relief of
Having you to talk to
(Someone to talk to)
