Darling Be Home Soon Lyrics By The Lovin Spoonful

    come and talk of all the things we did today
    hear 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 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

    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 okay 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
