The New Moon - Lover, Come Back to Me Lyrics

1928 Broadway
The New Moon the Musical - Lover, Come Back to Me Lyrics


The song is written by Sigmund Romberg and Oscar Hammerstein II.

MARIANNE:
You went away, I let you,
We broke the ties that bind;
I wanted to forget you
And leave the past behind.
Still, the magic of the night I met you
Seems to stay forever in my mind.

(Refrain:)
The sky was blue,
And high above.
The moon was new,
And so was love.
This eager heart of mine was singing:
"Lover, where can you be?"

You came at last,
Love had its day,
That day is past.
You've gone away.

This aching heart of mine is singing:
"Lover, come back to me!"
When I remember every little thing you used to do,
I'm so lonely,
Ev'ry road I walk along,
I've walked along with you,
No wonder I am lonely.

The sky is blue,
The night is cold,
The moon is new,
But love is old,
And, while I'm waiting here,
This heart of mine is singing:
"Lover come back to me!"

Repeat Refrain
