| Lyrics: | (Doyle LawsonCharles WallerRobert Yates)
Those lives were mine to love and cherish.
To guard
and guide along life's way.
Oh God forbid that one should perish.
That one alas should go
astray.
Back in the years with all together,
Around the place we'd romp and
play.
So lonely now and oft' times wonder,
Oh will they come back home some
day.
I'm lonesome for my precious children,
They live so far away.
Oh may they hear
my calling...calling..and come back home some day.
I gave my all for my dear
children,
Their problems still with love I share,
I'd brave life's storm, defy the
tempest
To bring them home from anywhere.
I lived my life my love
I gave them, to
guide them through this world of strife,
I hope and pray we'll live together,
In that great
glad here after life.
I'm lonesome for my precious children,
They live so far
away.
Oh may they hear my calling...calling..and come back home some day. |
