Come Back To Me

She is waiting in a border town
Her heart is many miles away
Every evening when the sun goes down
She remembers yesterday

Thinking of a love from long ago
A melody she knew so well
When her hair was as black as coal
She’s still underneath his spell

And she sits there in that old cafe
And she wastes another night away
Listens while the mariachi's play
Come back to me

And the ghost that lives inside her soul
Whispers that the time is near
Mirrors tell her that she’s getting old
Will he never more appear

Lonely wishes on a lonely night
Always wishing he was here
Crying softly in the candlelight
Who will dry her tears

Oh my love, where can you be
Oh my love, come back to me
