Lover had to leave me

Cross the desert plain

Turned to me, his lady

Tells me "lover wait"



Calling jesus, please

Send his love to me



Oh, wind and rain may haunt me

Look to the north and pray

Send me, please, his kisses

Send them home today



I'm begging, jesus, please

Send his love to me



Left alone in desert

This house becomes a hell

This love becomes a tether

This room becomes a cell



Mommy, daddy, please

Send him back to me



How long must I suffer?

Dear god, I've served my time

This love becomes my torture

This love, my only crime



Lover please release me

My arms too weak to grip

My eyes to dry for weeping

My lips too dry to kiss



Calling, jesus, please

Send his love to me



I'm begging, jesus, please

Send his love to me
