1. Come and talk of all the things we did today,

                     C                                         G

    here and laugh about our funny little ways.

                    C               Am               G

    while we have a few minutes to breathe,

                 C                Am                  G

    and I know that it's time you must leave. But …

 

   C

Darling, be home soon,

                                                   G

I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled.

        C

My darling, be home soon,

                                                                    G

it's not just these few hours, but I've been waiting since I toddled,

               C                Am                 G

for the great relief of having you to talk to.

              C                 Am                  G

    and I see that the time spent confused.

               C        Am          D

    and I feel  myself  in  bloom. So …

3. Go and beat your crazy head against the sky.

                 C                                                  G

    try and see beyond the houses and your eyes,

          C          Am          D7

    it's ok to  shoot the moon.

Darling, be home soon,

                                                   G
