VERSE 01: There was a day when you would say,/Our love was all divine,/Days when you cared, days when you shared/Ev’ry fond hope of mine./You said dear heart though we should part/You would come back should I call,/So you know why longing I cry/For one I love more than all.
VERSE 02: Come to my side, I want to hide/In your fond arms alone,/Close to your breast I want to rest,/Feeling you’re all my own./Then ev’ry kiss shall bring a bliss,/Sweeter than ever before,/Then life shall seem just like a dream,/And you will leave me no more.
CHORUS: Come to me now when I need you,/Bring back your heart fond and true,/Bring back the dreams I am missing,/Bring back the love ever new./Come with the light in your eyes, dear,/Come love’s old story to hear,/Come or my heart will be breaking,/Come when I need you dear./dear.
