Keep your eyes on the mail
I got something coming
I guess that I'm reaching out
Until I'm touching something
I struggle to return your generosity
I'd crumble without the faith you had in me to leave
I need to know that I'm needed back home
And you'll hold me when I'm back in town
I want you soon 'cause I need your spoonful of sugar
To wash the pill down
I'll be passing through Spo to say hi to our family
And I'm gonna pick up some hometown pottery
Oh, the irony
It's the first time I don't want to flee and I'm gone
I need to know that I'm needed back home
And you'll hold me when I'm back in town
I want you soon 'cause I need your spoonful of sugar
To wash the pill down
