- Verse:
- You went away, I let you,
We broke the ties that bind.
I wanted to forget you, And leave the past behind.
Still, the magic of the night I met you, Seems to stay
forever in my mind.
-
- Chorus:
- The sky was blue, And
high above, The moon was new, And so was love.
This eager heart of mine was singing: "Lover, where
can you be?"
You came at last, Love had its day, That day is past,
You've gone away,
This aching heart of mine is singing: "Lover, come
back to me!"
- When I remember ev'ry little
thing you used to do, I'm so lonely.
Ev'ry road I walk along, I've walked along with you, No
wonder I am lonely.
The sky is blue, The night is cold, The moon is new,
But love is old,
And while I'm waiting here, This heart of mine is singing: "Lover,
come back to me!"
