DARLING, COME HOME SOON
(Geoff Stephens / Roger Greenaway)


Matt Monro - 1974





It's been too long, I just can't take it
Darling, come home soon
I'm wishing every hour away
And every chance I get, I pray
That soon I'll hear the doorbell ringing

Can't stop dreaming
Each night you're with me in my lonely room
Then I awake and I'm alone
My heart is breaking
Darling, come home soon

A year ago we kissed goodbye
You said, "Don't worry, time will fly"
I bravely told myself that I could take it
But there's one thing I didn't know
When you're so much in love
The time goes so slow, believe me

It's been too long, I just can't take it
Darling, come home soon
I'm wishing every hour away
And every chance I get, I pray
That soon I'll hear the doorbell ringing

Can't stop dreaming
Each night you're with me in my lonely room
Then I awake and I'm alone
My heart is breaking
Darling, come home soon

It's been too long, I just can't take it
Darling, come home soon
I'm wishing every hour away
And every chance I get, I pray
That soon I'll hear the doorbell ringing

Can't stop dreaming
Each night you're with me in my lonely room
Then I awake and I'm alone
My heart is breaking
Darling, come home soon

My heart is breaking
Darling, come home soon
