A lonely wife had written a letter one sad day To the one she loved who'd wandered away And her teardrops fell like rain falling on the window pane Then she read the note and this it had to
If love me come and stay If you don't, please stay away Either love me or leave me alone Don't back and say you'll stay If you plan to leave someday Either love me or leave me alone
can't stand this grief and strife Sick with heartache, sick with fright Since we've married you've left me to roam have led a lonely life Since you took me for your wife Either love me or leave me alone
me now or say goodbye Don't come back and live a lie You must love me or leave me alone Love like yours just can't be But I'm still in love with you You must love me or leave me
If you love me come and stay If you don't, please stay away Either love me or leave me alone Don't back and say you'll stay If you plan to leave someday Either love me or leave me alone
