Think in time   Early evening light will start to fade   And we'll be called inside   To wait for chance to say   Can I stay out late or maybe just an hour   But when you call I know that all I have to say is...   Forty Forty Home   You never could catch me   With a stocking and a ball   Around the world a Yo-Yo spun   You would skip and I would run   Those long days are slipping away      Days will pass   Taking turns to hide and lose our way   And beats will change the rhythm of the year   A worn out gate will swingalongasister   And running out calling to a friendly teaser   Forty Forty Home   You never would catch me   My ball against the wall   But around the world a Yo-Yo spun   Dodge the conkers one by one   But yours always came my way   Cross my path was something   I could not expect again   From beast to beauty, beautiful remain   Slide this way   Don't leave your past in shadow   And paper plane will fly your way on golden wings of...   Forty Forty Home   So now you have caught me   Your stocking said it all   Played the game and won, two, three   Made your move and captured me   So never let me go      Counting the spots on the lino   It seemed such a waste of time   But can't you stick to your side of the garden?   And I to mine!   Forty Forty Home   You never would catch me   My ball against the wall   But around the world a Yo-Yo spun   Dodge the conkers one by one   But yours always came my way
