John Martyn - Back to Stay

Although I've been away so many lonely nights
You know I'm back today
I'm back to stay in your arms
And though I've been around and lived
The life I said I loved you know without you
Honey, all I do is worth nothing
And girlie, don't cry for me

Although there might be other
People in my life honey, on my mind
You will always find there's only you
And though you say you'll journey
To some foreign land i'll remember you
Yes, and I'll be true to your memory
And girlie, don't cry for me
And when, at last
You do come wandering home to me
I might look at you
But it will be through the weeks between
And when I hold you
It might not be you I have
In the passing days
We might both have changed to something new
And girlie, don't cry for me

And though I've been away
So many lonely nights
You know I'm back today
I'm back to stay in your arms
And though I've been around and lived
The life I said I loved you know without you
Honey, all I do is worth nothing
And girlie, don't cry for me
