Darling Be Home Soon

Come, and talk of all the things we did today

Here, and laugh about our funny little ways

While we have a few minutes to breathe

Then I know that it's time you must leave

But darling, be home soon

I couldn't bear to wait

An extra minute if you dawdled

My darling, be home soon

It's not just these few hours

But I've been waiting since I toddled

For the great relief of having you 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

So, darling, be home soon

I couldn't bear to wait

An extra minute if you dawdled

My darling, be home soon

It's not just these few hours

But I've been waiting since I toddled

For the great relief of having you to talk to

[Instrumental break]

So, darling, my darling, be home soon

I couldn't bear to wait

An extra minute if you dawdled

My darling, be home soon

It's not just these few hours

But I've been waiting since I toddled

For the great relief of having you to talk to

Go and beat your crazy head against the sky

Try and see beyond the houses and your eyes

It's OK to shoot the moon

Darling, be home soon

I couldn't bear to wait

An extra minute if you dawdled

My darling, be home soon

It's not just these few hours

But I've been waiting since I toddled

For the great relief of having you to talk to
