The sky was blue
And high above
The moon was new
And so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing
Lover, where can you be?
You came at last
Love had its day
That day is past
You've gone away
This aching heart of mine is singing
Lover, come back to me

When I remember every little thing
You used to do
I'm so lonely
Every road I walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover, come back to me

When I remember every little thing
You used to do
I grow lonely
Every road I walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover, come back to me
