The Lover's Return - Live, Los Angeles, CA 1977-1979
So you've come back to me at last
Since time once more has set you free
And asked again this heart of mine
As early hopes were bound in me
Come close and let me see your face
Chestnut locks as strong as snow
And yet it is the same dear face
I loved so fondly long ago
The same face on one summer's night
Bent over low and kissed my brow
Loved you oh so dearly then
That's all passed over now
Oh no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives us back our years
The love and youth we trusted in
Is yours, my dear, in perfect truth
And yet I think I love you still
As friend loves friend, I love you dear
God take you down life's darkened path
To where the skies are bright and clear
God take you down life's darkened path
To where the skies are bright and clear
Since time once more has set you free
And asked again this heart of mine
As early hopes were bound in me
Come close and let me see your face
Chestnut locks as strong as snow
And yet it is the same dear face
I loved so fondly long ago
The same face on one summer's night
Bent over low and kissed my brow
Loved you oh so dearly then
That's all passed over now
Oh no, I cannot take your hand
God never gives us back our years
The love and youth we trusted in
Is yours, my dear, in perfect truth
And yet I think I love you still
As friend loves friend, I love you dear
God take you down life's darkened path
To where the skies are bright and clear
God take you down life's darkened path
To where the skies are bright and clear
