Lover, Come Back To Me.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. June 2001.

[Lengthy Dialogue through Music]
[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 for ever in my mind.

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!"

Remem'bring ev'ry little thing
you used to say and 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!"

[Marianne] 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?"

[Robert enters, Ribeaud follows behind]

[Robert] 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!"

[Robert crosses over to Marianne]

[Robert] Ev'ry road I walk along,
I've walked along with you.
No wonder I am lonely!

[Ribeaud orders Robert to be taken back,
they scuffle, Ribeaud takes a note away from Robert]

[Marianne alone on stage] And while I'm waiting here,
this heart of mine is singing:
"Lover come back to me!"
