PLEASE
DON'T FLY AWAY
My young dreams, at my call,
Flocked like birds to my shoulder.
Then came the sweetest dream of all,
If only I could hold her.
Refrain:
Please don't fly away,
Don't let my love alarm you.
Stay, my darling, stay;
I swear I'll never harm you.
Please don't fly from me
And leave me sad and lonely,
Until eternity
I'll love none but you only.
I wish she wasn't leaving,
And flying so far away.
If only she knew my feelings,
I'm sure she'd want to stay.
Refrain:
Please don't fly away, etc
Down the road by the river,
I can see her coming.
And she wants me to hold her,
And what's this she's imploring?
Refrain:
Please don't fly away, etc
My young dreams, at my call,
Flocked like birds to my shoulder.
Then came the sweetest dream of all,
The sweetest dream of all.
Refrain:
Please don't fly away, etc
