Can't You Hear Me Calling

(Bill Monroe)



Oh, the days are dark and the nights are lonely.

Since you left me all alone.

I love you so, my little darlin';

I worry so, since you've been gone.



Sweetheart of mine, can't you hear me callin'?

A million times: "I love you best."

I mistreated you, Lord, an' I'm sorry.

Come back to me is my request.

I remember, dear, the night we parted.

A big mistake is what caused it all.

If you come back, sunshine will follow;

To stay away, would be my fall.



Sweetheart of mine, can't you hear me callin'?

A million times: "I love you best."

I mistreated you, Lord, an' I'm sorry.

Come back to me is my request.

Sweetheart of mine, can't you hear me callin'?

A million times: "I love you best."

I mistreated you, Lord, an' I'm sorry.

Come back to me is my request.



Come back to me is my request...
