Lyrics

Out in the city strees
Alone and weak from the cold and hunger
Trembling hands unfold a photograph
Mom and dan and ann marie
Smiles from a distant sunrise
The only smile you've seen in days

Chorus

Come back to me
Come back my darlin'
Come back to me
Or I will fade away
Come back to me
Come back my darlin'
I still believe in you
My runaway

Jesse and willy lee
Play in the street while their mother wonders
"Why won't they listen to a word I say?"
I sing a lullaby
To the baby in my arms
And the laughter fades away

Chorus

Come back to me
Come back my darlin'
I'm sending hope
For the runaway

Somewhere a flash of light
Cuts through the night
Like a lighthouse callin'
All of the lost and forgotten
I made a vow I will continue
'Till I find you
I'll never stop, I'll never stop believein'

I will wait for you forever
Sending you hope for the runaway
