Come to me for I'm lonely 
Come to me for I'm lonely, darling
Come to me and be my girl
For I love, love you so

Come to me forget the past
Think of life we have ahead, my my my my baby
Come to me and be my girl
For I love, love, love you so, oh now

Day are getting so lonely, yeah now
Life are getting so blue
Time has come for you and I
To get together and we'll make two, my my my my babe

Come to me for I'm begging
Come to me for I'm begging, darling
Come to me and be my girl
For I love, love, love you so, yeah

Come on now baby
Baby I'm down
Said I'm down my knees, oh
I need me someone, now
Said I need some love
Just to stand right by me, oh
You know that these arms of mine
They have been lonely
Lonely so long
But I know, but I know, I know what my heart needs
I know just what my heart needs
