Lyrics & Music by:  Ian McLeish
 

1.
If you think that you can find out all there is to know -
Concerning me, the things I do, and just how far I've got to go;
I can't explain it in a line -
And finding where I'm going's taking time.

2.
Life is a thing that comes, slowly, day by day;
And day by day my life unfolds, and I find I've got more to say -
About just where you're leading me -
I'm finding that our worlds just don't agree.

Bridge.
So have another cup of coffee, baby, yeah -
Go on, have another one on me;
Take a cigarette and relax, now, honey -
And tell me just where you think our hearts should be...

3.
And then, if I can, I'll tell you what I feel -
About you and the things you do, and why I think your love's not real;
So come back if you settle down -
And we'll both take our time next time around.
Yeah, honey - come back when you've settled down -
And we'll both take our time next time around.
