From the recording When the Masquerade Is Over
Lyrics
On an early Sunday morning
I sat by the river and thought of you
Looking out across cloudy waters
Though the sky above was clear and blue
Without you here I 'm so sad and lonesome
Without your love my darling to see me through
I never found the words to say
So now I'm telling you here today
I need you back into my life
I held you close then let you slip away
You slipped away
You slipped away
Oh how I miss you girl
You really rocked my world
Give me a chance again to say
And I won't hesitate
Now my days without you seem much longer
And how at night that it is I dream of you
I never found the words to say
So now I'm telling you here today
I need you back into my life
I held you close then let you slip away
You slipped away
You slipped away
You slipped away
