         G        C                               G
        Come and talk of all the things we did today

                   C                           G
        Here and laugh about our funny little ways

                  C  C/B    Am7          G
        while we have a few minutes to breathe

              C    C/B       Am7             G
        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

          C                                G
        I think I've come to see myself at last

              C   C/B       Am             G
        and I see that the time spent confused

                 C   C/B     Am            G
        was the time that I spent without you

               C    C/B Am Am/G  D7
        And I feel  myself  in  bloom
