Lovers Return Lyrics

And so you've come back to me
And say the old love's growing, yeah
You've tried through all these weary years
You've tried too vainly to forgetOh, no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives us back our youth
The loving heart, you slighted then
Was yours, my friend, in perfect truthCome close and let me see your face
Your raven hair is tinged with snow
Oh, yes, it is the same dear face
I loved so many years agoOh, no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives us back our youth
The loving heart, you slighted then
Was yours, my friend, in perfect truthFarewell, I think, I'll love yet
As friend to friend, God bless you, dear
And guide you through these weary years
To where the skies are always clearsOh, no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives us back our youth
The loving heart, you slighted then

Was yours, my friend, in perfect truthOh, no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives us back our youth
The loving heart, you slighted then
Was yours, my friend, in perfect truthWas yours, my friend, in perfect truth
Yours, my friend, in perfect truth
