Lyrics
Sick at heart and lonely,
Deep in dark despair.
Thinking one thought only-
‘Where is she, tell me where?’
And if she says to you
She don’t love me,
Please give her my message.
Tell her of my plea.And I know
That if she had me back again,
I would never make her sad.
I’ve got a heart full of soul.Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
She’s been gone such a long time,
Longer than I can bear.
But if she says she wants me,
Tell her that I’ll be there.
And if she says to you
She don’t love me,
Please give her my message.
Tell her of my plea.And I know
That if she had me back again,
I would never make her sad.
I’ve got a heart full of soul.
