Call me back again, my dearest,
Call me back to love and thee;
For my heart knows naught but sorrow,
Since thous't grown so cold to me,
have sometimes--well know it.
Caused thee disappointment, pain;
But beg forgiveness, Hazel,
Give me back thy love again.
When my eyes meet thine Mavournsen,
When see thy face so fair,
Ali pray that death may claim me,
Since find no love in there,
Do not punish me forever
See these tears, they fall like rain
Give me back thy heart, my dearest,
Give me back thy love again.
God in mercy watches over,
ALL and ministers to those,
Whose sad hearts are bowed in sorrow,
So. I'll trust him to the close;
Mayhaps, He, in loving kindness,
Seeking e'er to lessen pain,

Give me back thy love again.
