How Soon

Joe


(Spoken:) 
Wait a minute, baby 
You packin' your bags 
How soon 
Naw, don't do that 
Wait a minute 
Why don't you stay a while 
How soon 
We can work this out 
Sit down 
Let's talk about it 
CHORUS: 
I miss your smiling face 
The smell of your perfume 
Girl, this damn bed is cold 
Nothing to hold on to 
Oh yeah, the phone is cool 
But girl, I need you here 
Be it plane, train, or automobile 
How soon can you get here 

I'm gonna miss you 
More than you know 
Every time you leave 
I wanna beg you not to go 
We have so much fun, girl 
Don't we though 
When you pack your 
Bags to leave 
I try not to let 
My feelings show 

It's so hard for me 
Especially when 
You been around 
Distant lovers 
Is what we are 
And girl 
It's breakin' me down 

Repeat chorus 

When will I see you? 
It's never too soon 
Can you come 
In the morning 
And leave later 
On that afternoon? 
See, I'm just as scared 
Whenever you're away 
Girl, I'd give anything 
Just to see you everyday 

It's so hard for me 
Especially after 
You've been around 
Distant lovers 
Are what we are 
And girl 
It's breakin' me down 

You're a career girl 
You gotta do 
What you gotta do 
As much as I want 
You here with me 
Girl, I'm so damn 
Proud of you 

Repeat chorus twice 

Get here, get here 
Yeah, yeah 
How soon 
Ooh, baby 
Girl, I hate to see you leave 
Can't you see it's killing me 
Be it plane 
Train or automobile 
Get here 

Repeat chorus twice
