linger awhile

the time is coming soon to say goodbye

a time of sadness it will be

but

honey

listen to my parting sigh

and linger on awhile with me

the stars above you yet linger awhile

they whisper i love you; oh

linger awhile

and when you have gone away

every hour seems like a day

i've something to tell you

oh

linger awhile

the stars above you yet linger awhile

they whisper i love you; oh

linger awhile

and when you have gone away

every hour seems like a day

i've something to tell you

oh

linger awhile
