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. |
