Comin' Back Soon (The Bereft Man's Song) Lyrics

I've all my wisdom teeth

Two up top, two beneath
And yet I'll recognise

My mouth says things that aren't so wise

But when I sing my darling's praise

I know I'm right, or close anyways

For she's a gem upon this earth

I know to me she will return

CHORUS:

Oh I know it's true, I know it's true

That I was made for her, and she me too

And I'm confident that she'll think so too

And she'll be coming back...soon

Mornings we have toast and tea

I gaze across the table, she glares right back at me

And when we're getting low on jam
I give her the last spoonful, that's just the way I am

And I drive her to work each day

Even though it's early and work is far away

And I don't even say a thing

When she plays the radio so loud you cannot think

[chorus]

I can't stand her g******** friends

But I will tolerate them, even though I hate them

And I will put up with her parents
'cause she says I'll not meet someone who is so kind and sweet

Ever again...

[chorus]

I've all my wisdom teeth

Two up top, two beneath

And yet I'll recognise

My mouth says things that aren't so wise

But when I sing my darling's praise

I know I'm right, or close anyways

For she's a gem upon this earth

I know to me she will return

[chorus]

Yeah she'll be coming back...soon
