lyrics

Was late in the morning, when my mind got to drifting
Thinking about you, my darling, my babe
And into the afternoon, I couldn't stop it
You've been on my mind, since you went away

And it's not for the asking, that I have been feeling
For I have been trying, for a year and a day
In fact I lost counting, from when I last saw your face
And I didn't know if I'd ever, see you again

So won't you come to me, me old true lover
Come up and tell all, the things you've to say
And don't be afraid, to come with the rain
'Cause it'll only be sunshine, to see you again

I heard something this morning, about your returning
Coming back home here, to this old place
I don't know how you feel, will you even still know me
Will you even want, to see this old face

But won't you come to me, me old true lover
We can pick up where we left off, or just start again
And i know we've both changed, since you've been away
But please don't you tell me, we can't make it the same

When I stood at the shoreline, and waved you away
I'd never felt in, my heart such a pain
And now as you fade in, coming over the horizon
I don't ever want to feel, that way again

So won't you come to me, me old true lover
Something a tells me, that this is the way
But if you come back, and say this is for nothing
Well I will turn round, and I'll walk away

So come back me darling, me old true lover
Don't you then tell me, you're a going away
But if you know, that you can't be a staying
Come back me darling, stay just for, today
