Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
Word's out on the corner, word is moving fast
Somebody said they saw her, said she's back at last
The porch lights all are flickering, the dogs begin to howl
The whole block's coming alive right about now
[chorus]
Vera's coming home tonight
Lock the quiet up and turn on every light
She walks in like the summer walks in June
Vera's coming home, and none too soon
[verse]
The fellas by the record shop are combing back their hair
Somebody's borrowed daddy's car just to be there
She never asks permission, never waits in line
She just arrives like weather, always right on time
[chorus]
Vera's coming home tonight
Lock the quiet up and turn on every light
She walks in like the summer walks in June
Vera's coming home, and none too soon
[bridge]
Some folks say she's trouble, some folks say she's wild
I say she's just a story that was never reconciled
Whatever kind of storm she brings, we'll take it, we don't mind
'Cause a night with her is worth the mess we'll find
[chorus]
Vera's coming home tonight
Lock the quiet up and turn on every light
She walks in like the summer walks in June
Vera's coming home, and none too soon
