BILLIE HOLIDAY - LOVER COME BACK TO ME lyrics

Sigmund Romberg / Oscar Hammerstein II

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 if the night I met you

Seems to stay forever in my mind

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 every little thing

You used to do

I'm so lonely

Every road I walk along

I walk 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

When I remember every little thing

You used to do

I grow lonely

Every road I walk along

I walk 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
