Old True Lover

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
