LYRICS

Bette should be back by now
She’s never been this late before
Did she get lost, get hurt, somehow
He stood at his open door
The rain was really coming down
He heard the lightning crack
Did Bette meet someone in town
Why hasn’t Bette come back?

CHORUS:
Bette, come back, come back, come back
Bette, it’s starting to storm
Bette, come back, come back, come back
Come back where it’s cozy and warm
Though sometimes they don’t see eye to eye
There are so many good times they’ve had
And Bette has never gone bye-bye
And Bette has never been bad

He hollered out unheeding
“You have a home and love”
His voice was almost pleading
“Bette, what are you thinking of!”

CHORUS

THIRD PART:
Sometimes she acts a bit cheeky
And sometimes a little bit funny
But Bette has never been sneaky
Or gone out looking for a honey

He felt so lost, felt so alone
As he fell upon his mattress
He was holding back another groan
When Bette walked across his chest
She licked his cheek and began to purr
She curled up beside his head
Then he remembered thunder frightened her
Bette was hiding under his bed

CHORUS:
Bette’s come back, come back, come back
She’s safe from the storm
Bette’s come back, come back, come back
She’s happy where it’s cozy and warm
