Iolanthe [three numbers] (1991 Remastered Version), Act II: Soon as we may (all)

歌詞

You fake half a smile as I'm done packing the car For a months worth of shows out west and down below You stand between me and my guitar Your face says "don't go", but you tell me that you know That this is what I need to do and baby, I thank you And you understand freedom And you stand by your man And you know the reason with no dis-believin' Of knowin' now who I am I'll be home just as soon as I can Here are some smokes for the drive, I saved you my last 4 or 5 I'll call you when sound check is through, so I can say thank you She says, "Stay out of the left lane!...so you don't leave me here a wreck". I say, "Yeah, mama, sure. I don't wanna leave premature. Let me do one last idiot check. I don't wanna leave just yet". And you understand freedom While you stand by your man Darling don't you know I got 10 shows to go This was all part of the plan I'll be home just as soon as I can If you could be here right now, you'd understand how The road and the stage meet After driving all day, now is finally my turn to play You understand freedom And darlin' here comes your man I've been driving 7 hours So honey, just let me shower And I'll hold you for as long as I can I'm gonna do this all again Just as soon as I can
