Soon - Joe Pass

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
