As I hear the mockin birds, I remember the words, When yousaid that forever you'd loveme, Now happiness is gone, Memories linger on, From the chains of our love I set you free. Sweet as the morning, Smile like the sunshine, Ours was a love no words could tell, I love you, oh how I miss you, Won't you come back, Lily Dale.
Since we have said good bye, I'm so blue I could cry, Happiness is a thing called the past, Days without you, Make my nights oh so blue, And always in my heart, Our love willlast. Still in A. Won't you come back, Lily Dale.
