In a little while 
Surely you'll be mine 
In a little while I'll be there 

In a little while 
This hurt will hurt no more 
I'll be home, love 

When the night takes a deep breath 
And the daylight has no end 
If I crawl, if I come crawling home 
Will you be there 

In a little while 
I will blow by every breeze 
Friday night running 
To Sunday on my knees 

That girl, that girl 
She's mine 
And I've know her since 
Since you were a little girl 
With Spanish eyes 
Oh, when I saw her 
In a pram they pushed her by 

My how you've grown 
Well it's been 
It's been a little while 

Slow down my bleeding heart 
Man dreams one day to fly 
A man takes a rocketship into the skys 
He lives on starlets dying in the night 
And follows in the trail 
The scatter of light 

Slow down my bleeding heart 
Slowly, slowly love 
Slow down my bleeding heart 
Slowly, slowly love 
Slow down my beating heart 
Slowly, slowly love
