Lyrics

  1. We have said “Goodbye”
    Too late now to sigh
    Still I feel so blue
    Wearyin’ for you

Refrain
‘Cause you are on my mind the whole night long
I am for you right or wrong
When the dusk comes creeping
Should be time for sleeping
But you’re on my mind the whole night long

  1. I thought time would heal
    All the woes I feel
    But each night I toss
    Mourning for my loss
