Going away to college, lonely days for a love left behind.
Story behind the song
When my son went away to college.
Lyrics
COME BACK TO ME
Copyrights: 1995 Kenny W. Hopkins
1- You're gone, gone away to school, and I know you had to go;
The flowers in the meadows just don't want to grow;
The grass is covering all the trails we used to know;
But I know you'll come back when school is through at last, yes someday you'll
come back, to me.
2- Lonely, oh so lonely, since you've been away;
lonely oh so lonely, how long is the day;
Your friends they still come by but they don't want to stay;
But I know you'll come back when school is through at last, yes someday you'll
come back, to me.
3- The leaves are now falling, they will cover the paths;
The paths that we made in fun, through all the summers past;
Soon winter will wrap the land in it's cold and barren mask;
But I know you'll come back when school is through at last, yes someday you'll
come back to me.
4- Someday, when the years have passed, and our hair has turned to grey;
We'll listen to the whip-poor-wills at the end of the day;
We'll talk of the things we've done and have seen along the way;
Yes I know you'll come back when school is through at last, yes someday you'll
come back to me.
