| If I were alone
|
| When autumn comes round
|
| Shakes all the leaves until they cover the ground
|
| Oh, ho, then I’d go alone
|
| To a corner of despair
|
| I’d a-wait for you
|
| Oh, ho, I’d pretend
|
| That autumn wasn’t there
|
| If I were alone
|
| When the snow start to fall
|
| And a flicker from the candle glowing shadows across the wall
|
| Oh, ho, I’d stay by the fire
|
| But I’d shiver with the cold
|
| For I could not be warm
|
| Oh, ho, oh, without you, without you
|
| There to hold
|
| But all the good days would return if you
|
| Just come back to me
|
| Please come back to me
|
| Like, oh, like you used to do
|
| Summer comes around
|
| It’ll warm these chilly days
|
| And spring has painted all the leaves
|
| That autumn took away
|
| That’s when you better hurry home
|
| To that corner of despair
|
| For like the seasons come and go
|
| Oh, then you won’t find me waiting there
|
| But all the good days would return if you
|
| Just come back to me
|
| Please come back to me
|
| Like, oh, like you used to do |
