All the grass is turning brown,
Autumn leaves are softly falling down,
Bags are packed and lying ‘round,
Oh, I’m on my way to some other town.
Baby, take care,
I’ll be home soon,
Driving tonight ‘neath the wandering moon.
Sometimes I wish I was gone,
Sometimes I wish that I was home,
Wish I knew what wishing was for,
Sometimes I…I can’t wish anymore.
Baby, take care,
I’ll be home soon,
I’m driving tonight ‘neath this wandering moon,
Oh, baby, take care,
I’ll be home soon,
Driving tonight ‘neath the wandering moon.
I am a father, I am a son,
I am no longer the only one,
St. Michael’s angels watch over us all,
Help us make some sense of it all.
Baby, take care,
I’ll be home soon,
Driving tonight ‘neath the wandering moon,
Baby take care,
I’ll be home soon,
I’ll find my way back ‘neath the wandering moon.
