There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for it's mate to return evermore
So remember, please remember, that I'm lonely too
Like the lonely little robin I'm waiting for you
When you went away dear you promised that you'd write
And I thought that you would be true
But I find the mailbox as empty day and night
As empty as the arms that held you
There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for it's mate to return evermore
So remember, please remember, that I'm lonely too
Like the lonely little robin I'm waiting for you
Now I walk alone down the trail we knew so well
Where we strolled together for years
My cheeks are wet, and it's hard for me to tell
Weather it's raindrops thats falling or tears
There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for it's mate to return evermore
So remember, please remember, that I'm lonely too
Like the lonely little robin I'm waiting for you
Oft times I wonder when night begins to fall
And my heart recalls memories
From outside my window I seem to hear you call
But it's only the wind in the trees
There's a lonely little robin in a tree by my door
And it waits for it's mate to return evermore
So remember, please remember, that I'm lonely too
Like the lonely little robin I'm waiting for you
Like the lonely little robin I'm waiting for you
