Come home, my love, come home!
The twilight is falling,
The whippoorwill calling,
The night is very near,
And the darkness full of fear,
Come home to my arms, come home!
Come home, my love, come home!
In folly we parted,
And now, lonely hearted,
I know you look in vain
For a love like mine again;
Come home to my arms, come home!
Come home, dear love, come home!
I’ve much to forgive you,
And more yet to give you.
I’ll put a little light
In the window every night,-
Come home to my arms, come home.
(Henry Van Dyke)
