Lonely Little Robin

There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for its mate who'll return nevermore
So remember, please remember that I'm waiting too
Like a lonely little robin I'm waiting for you

When you went away dear you promised that you'd write
And I thought that you would be true
But I find the mailbox is empty day and night
As empty as the arms that held you

There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for its mate who'll return nevermore
So remember, please remember that I'm waiting too
Like a lonely little robin I'm waiting for you

I walk in the rain down the lane we knew so well
Where we strolled together for years
Then my cheeks are wet and it's hard for me to tell
If raindrops are falling or tears

There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for its mate who'll return nevermore
So remember, please remember that I'm waiting too
Like a lonely little robin I'm waiting for you

And oh how I miss you when night begins to fall
And my heart recalls memories
From outside my window I seem to hear you call
But it's only the wind through the trees

There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for its mate who'll return nevermore
So remember, please remember that I'm waiting too
Like a lonely little robin I'm waiting for you

So remember, please remember that I'm waiting too
Like a lonely little robin I'm waiting for you
Darling I'm waiting for you
