[Verse 1]
Bound for trouble from the start
I've been walking through this old world
In the dark
All alone, right by my side
There you were shining
My ray of light

[Chorus]
So I'll sing lover come back
Lover come back to me
Won't you ever come back
Ever come back to me
How could I've been so foolish to let you leave?
Lover come back
Lover come back to me

[Verse 2]
I'll never be as good as I'd like to be
Eternally restless refusing to believe
But I think that we missed our connection
(missed our connection)
I wanted to feel your affection
(feel your affection)
Until my final days

[Chorus]
I'll sing lover come back
Lover come back to me
Won't you ever come back
Ever come back to me
How could I've been so foolish to let you leave?
Lover come back
Lover come back to me

[Verse 3]
I am warm enough
Yet I still shiver
I am fed, but still I starve
You know me, I am the great misgiver
Always waiting on the clouds to part

[Chorus]
I'll sing lover come back
Lover come back to me
Won't you ever come back
Ever come back to me
How could I've been so foolish to let you leave?
So lover come back
Lover come back to me


Lover come back
Lover come back to me
Won't you ever come back
Ever come back to me
How could I've been so foolish to let you leave?
So lover come back
Lover come back to me
