Your Return Songtext
von John and Mary

I′d wondered if you'd mind me
Sitting here along the step
I′d wondered if you'd mind me
Looking for your silhouette
I counted tiny lights through cracks in the wall
For a little while a solitary day passed by

I sat on the corner
A double rainbow in the sky,
I sat on the corner
Where yesterday we said goodbye
My drawings on the sidewalk now disappear
For a little while a solitary day passed by


You asked me the time and I said to you:
'Look at the clock over there...′
But then you went away, I had nothing to say
But I waited for your return

A voice whispers softly the written word
The hope you gave
A voice whispers softly
From penny poems always saved
Behind the church a heart of snow melts to tears
For a little while a solitary day passed by

You asked me the day and I said to you,
′Look at the wall over there...'
But then you went away, I had nothing to say
But I waited for your return
For your return

(John Lombardo/Mary Ramsey)
