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

and 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 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 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



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
