Lyrics
I just received your letter
You're down and out, you say
At first I thought I would tell you
To travel on the other way
But in my memory lingers
All you once were to me
I'm going to give you another chance
To prove what you can be
Any old time you wanna come back home
Drop me a line and say no more you'll roam
You had your chance to play the game fair
And when you left me, sweetheart, you only left a load of care
Now that you're down
I'm going to stick by you
If you will only say
Your roaming days are through
You'll find me here
Like the day you left me alone
Any old time
You wanna come back home
You'll find me here
Like the day you left me alone
Any old time
You wanna come back home, home, home
