Lyrics
- I’m sorry, awfully sorry
Terribly sorry and blue
I want to come back to you
No other girlie will do
Oh, baby, I think that maybe
You’re just a bit sorry, too
Send the key, let me in again
Honey bee, let’s begin again
Where we left off the old romance
I’ll give you my heart
If you’ll give me the chance
Refrain
Come back to me
Come on and come back to me
Let’s forget, let’s forgive
Let’s love, let’s live
Let’s get together again in harmony
I want to come back, I do
I want to come back to you
Come on and come back
I want to come back to you
Won’t you come back to me
- I’m lonely, awfully lonely
Lonely but only for you
What in the world will I do
If you decide that we’re through?
Oh, dearie, I have a theory
How to be happy and true
Telephone, won’t you ring the bell?
Telephone, tell me all is well
I will swear by the stars above
I’ll give you my life
If you’ll give me your love
