Oh, the days are dark and the nights are lonely.
Since you left me all alone.
I love you so, my little darlin';
I worry so, since you've been gone.
Sweetheart of mine, can't you hear me callin'?
A million times: "I love you best."
I mistreated you, Lord, an' I'm sorry.
Come back to me is my request.
Instrumental break.
I remember, dear, the night we parted.
A big mistake is what caused it all.
If you come back, sunshine will follow;
To stay away, would be my fall.
Sweetheart of mine, can't you hear me callin'?
A million times: "I love you best."
I mistreated you, Lord, an' I'm sorry.
Come back to me is my request.
Instrumental break.
Sweetheart of mine, can't you hear me callin'?
A million times: "I love you best."
I mistreated you, Lord, an' I'm sorry.
Come back to me is my request.
