"Any Day Now"

Any day now, I will hear you say ´Goodbye, my love
´ And you’ll be on your way
Then my wild beautiful bird, you will have flown, woah
Any day now, I’ll be all alone, whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa
Any day now, when your restless eyes meet someone new
Oh, to my sad surprise
Then the blue shadows will fall all over town, woah
Any day now (any day now)
Love will let me down (any day now), whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa
I know I shouldn’t want to keep you
If you don’t want to stay-ay
Until you´re gone forever
I’ll keep holdin´ on for dear life
Holding you this way
Begging you to stay

Any day now, when the clock strikes ´Go´
You’ll call it off
And then my tears will flow
Then my wild beautiful bird, you will have flown, woah
Any day now (any day now)
Love will let me down (any day now), ´cause you won’t
be around

(Instrumental break)
Then the blue shadows will fall all over town, woah
Any day now (any day now)
Love will let me down (any day now), ´cause you won’t
be around

Any day now, you won´t be around
Ooo-ooo-oo
(Any day now)
No no no no no no
You won´t be around
(Any day now)
(FADE)

(Burt Bacharach/Bob Hillard)
