One Word Would Call Me Back Again.
Copyright, 1885, by Willis Woodward & Co.
One word would rail me back again,
Tho' far I'm parted from your side:
My heart is sad with weary pain,
Oh, cast away each thought of pride;
Can we forget the hours of joy?
Must blissful memories fade and wane?
Let not your pride my hopes destroy,
One word would call me back again.
Chorus.
Then let us both the past forget,
As Summer flow'rs forget the rain;
Bid smiles replace each sad regret,
One word would call me back again.
One word would rail me back again,
To me you still are just as dear;
My love for you shall never wane,
Tho' you be far away or near;
Then tell me all shall be forgot,
For you I sigh in tears and pain;
Let love's fond prayer be slighted not,
One word would call me back again.-Chorus.
