Any Moment Now

(album: Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway - 2016)

Hi, Honey! I'm home! [*door closes*] Sorry I'm late, my appointments went on and on...
No no. It's okay. I-I ate already
Really?
Yeah, well when I didn't hear from you. I assu
Oh, I'm so sorry
It's fine don't worry
I really meant to call
So how-how's the script?
Uh yeah, it's coming along. It's good. Good, yeah
Good, good. Um... I had my hair cut. Do you like it?
Uh-huh. Yeah. I ha-hang on one second. I'm in the middle of writing something. Hang on
Oh. I'm sorry. Um... I'm I'm going upstairs
Listen don't [*sighs*]
What?
Alright. I'll be up

Any moment now, he'll notice me
Me and my butterfly heart
Any moment now he'll turn around and grin
And say "At last, where have you been?

We're late for daybreak on the Riviera"
If not the Riviera, the beach at Malibu
The rich Madera sunset going on forever
With my arms growing cold
And his arms growing warm with life unfolding

Any moment now, he'll say to me
"Why don't you follow your heart?"
How can he know that I've been praying he'd arrive
Afraid to come alive 'til then
Just saying, any moment now

Listen, can you tell that I'm a little frustrated?
Well, so am I
I mean, I feel like you've been avoiding me
Me, avoiding you?
You-you're avoiding us
Oh
I mean, you're always out having meetings or
I'm not always out
It would be nice if you just stayed home once in a while. Just the two of us
Well, I wouldn't be much fun, honey. I don't drink
Oh ho Well, you gotta have something to wash down a frozen dinner
Wow. I don't know how to answer that. Look, I am going to sleep

Any moment now, she'll notice me
Me and my simple guy ways
Any moment now, she said she'll settle down
If that were true, I'd paint the town

I'd take her flying to Atlantic City
If not Atlantic City, to see Niagara Falls
I know a pretty trout stream up above Seattle
What a life we could build in a home that is filled with love and laughter

Any moment now
You'll say to me
You'll humor me
Chase the past
Those overcast days (oooh)
How can I begin forgetting where we've been
To let the laughter in again
It's always any moment now
Oh, any moment now

Promise me we'll talk about this
Sure
When?
