[Verse 1]
Any day now, can't you see? You'll be comin' back to me
Comin' back to where you wanna be
And the time that you've been gone will vanish like the song
Sung by the rain when we were fast asleep
[Chorus]

All our nights will be touched by the glow of lovers' souls
Side by side in the sun, we will build the world we're after
Side by side, we will lie, when the day's good work is done
I love you
[Verse 3]
Any day now, can't you see? You'll be comin' back to me
Comin' back to where you wanna be
And the time that you've been gone will vanish like the song
Sung by the rain when we were fast asleep
