Lyrics

The days are long the nights are lonely Since you left me all alone I worried so my little darling I worried so since you've been gone

Sweetheart of mine can't you hear me calling A million times that I love you best I mistreated you, darling, I'm sorry Come back to me is my request

I remember dear the night we parted A big mistake had caused it all If you come back sunshine will follow If you stay away twill be my fall The nights are long my little darling Oh how I need your sweet embrace When I awoke the sun was shining I looked up and I saw your face
