I wish you could hear me call out your name
I opened my arms
But you never came
I cried through the night
But still no reply
I hoped that you’d come back to me
Call or drop by

I see what I want to see
But deep down inside of me
The answer is plain to see
You ain’t coming back to me
You ain’t coming back to me

It’s been so long now
Since you went away
Sometimes I sit and remember
That lonely and dreadful day
But still I can dream
Pretend you’ll return
But in my deep desperation
One thing I will learn
Yes one thing I will learn

I see what I want to see
But deep down inside of me
The answer is plain to see
You ain’t coming back to me
You ain’t coming back to me
No you ain’t coming back this time
No, no, no darlin, You ain’t coming back this time
I don’t care how much I got to pray now
You ain’t coming back to me this time
You ain’t coming back, No you ain’t coming back
No, no, no....
