My darling, I'm lonely, now that you're gone. Please come back to me. You are the answer to my prayer, I want to love you And I swear to live my life with one desire, you. I believed the sweet things that you said. You lied to me and instead, You broke my heart. You, yes, you. My darling, come back and stay with me. I live just for you. We'll be so happy together. Please come back to me. It isn't right, You'll never know. I am so sad. Why did you go? You broke my heart. You, yes, you.
