John Sebastian 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
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
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 okay to shoot the moon
Darling, be home soon
I couldn't bear to wait
An extra minute if you dawdled
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
