Lyrics Gordon Lightfoot

Gordon Lightfoot

Your Love's Return

Come to the door, my pretty one

Put on your rings and precious things

Hide all your tears as best you can

Try to recall what used to be

Roses are waiting for dewdrops to fall

Climbing your windows and walls

Bells in the steeple are ringing, singing

Listen to them talkin' about your love's return

Let me come in, my pretty one

And try to undo what I have done

For I must be forgiven now

I cannot leave your love alone

Roses are waiting for dewdrops to fall

Climbing your windows and walls

Leaves in the garden are falling, calling

Listen to them talkin' about your love's return

Let me come in, my precious one

Wake from your sleep and take me home

Open your eyes and look my way

I will not lose what I have won

Roses are waiting for dewdrops to fall

Climbing your windows and walls

Bells in steeple are ringing, singing

Listen to them talkin' about your love's return
