Tanya Tucker › Lyrics › Soon

Looking back she thinks about that moment in the sand
And what was just a summer fling got so far out of hand
She knew that he was taken but she gave in anyway
She believed it when she heard him say

Soon I'll be free to be with you
Soon I'll be telling you know who the facts of life
I want you to be my wife and our dreams will all come true, soon

Christmas finds her all alone with no calls to rejoice
So she calls his caller phone just to hear his voice
She knows that it's useless, but she does it anyway
And she knows how to answer before she hears him say

Soon, I can't talk to you right now
Soon, you'll hear a beep and you know how to play this game
Leave your number and your name, and I promise I'll call back, soon

Someday slowly turns to never
Tears and champagne offer no solution
He'll say soon to her forever
So she makes her New Year's resolution

Soon she won't call him anymore
Soon, when he shows up at her door and ask her when
Can I be with you again it will be her turn to say, soon
