Verse 1

  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

Chorus

  [x3302x]

  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

Verse 2

  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

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3

  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

[repeat chorus, last line w/solo acoustic guitar]
