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 So darlin', be home soon (darlin', be home soon) I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled My darlin', be home soon (darlin', be home soon) It's not just these few hours but I've been waitin' since I toddled For the great relief of havin' you to talk to And now, a quarter of my life is almost passed 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 So darlin', be home soon (darlin', be home soon) I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled My darlin', be home soon (darlin', be home soon) It's not just these few hours but I've been waitin' since I toddled For the great relief of havin' you to talk to Go and beat your crazy head against the sky Try and see beyond the houses and your eyes It's okay to shoot the Moon My darlin', be home soon (darlin', be home soon) I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled My darlin', be home soon (darlin', be home soon) It's not just these few hours but I've been waitin' since I toddled For the great relief of havin' you to talk to For the great relief of havin' you to talk to
