Tom Tom lived for all he could give
And he stood by his father’s side.
Then into his world came a sweet young girl
And he took her for his bride.
He took her for his bride.

Tom Tom turn around don’t ever let me down,
Don’t ever leave my life.
Tom Tom turn around, don’t ever let me down,
Take me for your wife.
Please, take me for your wife.

Tom Tom’s called away but his wife says: stay!
Though he had never had to leave before
Sweet young wife only fears for the good life
That she may see no more.
And then he hears her call.

Tom Tom turn around don’t ever let me down
Don’t ever leave my life.
Tom Tom turn around, don’t ever let me down
You can’t leave your wife,
No, you can’t leave your wife.

Tom Tom returns but only to learn
There’s was truth in the words he’d ignored.
Sweet young wife found a new kind of life
And a strong man’s heart was torn.
Will he always hear that call?

Tom Tom turn around don’t ever let me down
Don’t ever leave my life.
Tom Tom turn around, don’t ever let me down
You can’t leave your wife,
No, you can’t leave your wife.

Tom Tom’s alone in a world of his own
When he hears a new voice call.
Be my man, I’ll do all that I can
Is that what he’s been waiting for?
Will he turn and answer the call?
