Come Back to Me From Over The Sea
Anne Porter


When you come home
Come back to me
From over the sea
Don't leave me
All alone
I've been waiting here
For a year
Or three
They'll be fireworks and
Parades
Your favourite kind of lemonade
They'll be dancin' in the streets
But it's your kiss
I'm longin' to greet
Oh
Come back to me
Darling
From over the sea
Every heartbeat whispers your name to me
No bright lights
No city streets
Can ever replace your love so sweet
When you come home
Come back to me from over the sea
The stars will shine for you alone
Just like they did when you first left me
I've kept our letters safe in a box
Every word a treasure
Every line unlocks
Memories of nights under silver moons
Counting down the days till I see you soon
Oh
Come back to me
Darling
From over the sea
Every heartbeat whispers your name to me
No bright lights
No city streets
Can ever replace your love so sweet
So sail on back
My love
My heart's decree
Come back to me from over the sea
Hold me close
Don't let me go Forever yours
I've loved you so
