[Verse 1] When morning lays its golden hand upon the meadow, I call your name, The river hums a little softer, the old oak whispers just the same. My heart is like a lantern waiting by the window through the night, Counting every quiet moment till you bring it back its light. [Chorus] Don’t stay away from me For even a single day The roses lose their color When you’re too far away Don’t stay away from me Come back and make me stay My soul keeps singing softly Please don’t drift away [Verse 2] The road may wind forever, the skies may turn to gray, But my soul keeps on singing, asking you to stay. I’ve walked beneath the stars and listened to the countryside’s refrain, Every breeze that finds my shoulder carries echoes of your name. [Chorus] Don’t stay away from me For even a single day The roses lose their color When you’re too far away Don’t stay away from me Come back and make me stay My soul keeps singing softly Please don’t drift away [Bridge] You are the song the mountains keep, The dream the valleys know, The sweetest little wildflower Where my wandering heart can grow. [Chorus] Don’t stay away from me For even a single day The roses lose their color When you’re too far away Don’t stay away from me Come back and make me stay My soul keeps singing softly Please don’t drift away
