Beth
Glee Cast · Glee - The Music, The Complete Season One CD Collection [2010]
But I can't come home right now
Me and the boys are playing
And we just can't find the sound
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh Beth what can I do?
Beth what can I do?
You say you feel so empty
That our house just ain't our home
I'm always somewhere else
And you're always there alone
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh Beth what can I do?
Beth what can I do?
Beth I know you're lonely
And I hope you'll be alright
'Cause me and the boys will be playing all night
all night
Beth

As part of the extensive Season One collection, the track demonstrates how the series utilized established catalogues to build its musical identity. The recording remains a staple of the show's early repertoire, illustrating the cast's versatility in handling material that spans decades of popular music history.
