Lyrics
- I send you this little love letter
To plead for me while we’re apart
I can’t tell Love’s story when I am beside you
The story that dwells in my heart
Then listen to Love’s gentle whisper
Of devotion so tender and true
My fond heart is pining for you, oh my darling
I’m waiting in Loveland for you
Refrain
Come, oh, come
Where the birds sing in sweetest song
Come, oh, come
To the one who has waited long
Bring me your tender caresses
Bring me your heart ever true
Come to my heart, my only one
I’m waiting in Loveland for you
- Whenever I linger beside you
Whenever I look in your eyes
I have not the courage to tell you the story
Inspired by your heart’s gentle sighs
My secret I’ve kept until now, dear
And maybe it’s your secret, too
If absence makes fonder the hearts that are pining
I’m waiting in Loveland for you
