Lyrics
- Love is calling, night is falling
Love, I’m calling you
Tell me only, are you lonely?
Wish I only knew
Skies are weeping, love is sleeping
And I’m weeping too
Refrain:
All my heartstrings are broken
There’s no music or song
I’ll hold that as a token
Until love comes along
I just smile all through sorrow
All my dreams can’t be wrong
So, I hope for tomorrow
Until love comes along
Where is that moonlight above?
Where is that June light of love?
Someone is hearing, but no one will answer
The one who’s endearing and lonely
When the love tides are turning
I’ll be living a song
But I’m waiting and yearning
Until love comes along
- Time is flying, my heart’s sighing
Time is flying fast
Can it ever be, or never?
Can it ever last?
Will love really come sincerely?
Has love really past?
