American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
COME BACK, SWEETHEART. Copyright, 1897, by T. B. Harms & Co. Words and Music by Safford Waters. 
The stars are shining clear and bright, As on the eve when last we purted; I wonder me you gay to-night, For I am sad and lonely-hearted, All if you still recall the day, The happy day our vows were plighted; And how you whispered, "come what may. Our hearts, our lives shall be united!" 
Refrain. Cone back, sweetheart, come back to me, Come back again and leave me never; Come back to one Who dreams of thee, And who will dream of thee forever. Forgive that I have caused you pain. Who never yet have ceased, love, to regret thee. I may not see thy face again. But still I never can forget thee. 
Sometimes I think you never knew The reason a by I said "Good-bye, dear; " But oh, sweetheart, 'twas all for you, For you And for the by and by, dear; But now the clouds have c eared away, And shines again the light of Heaven; For us there dawns another day, When all, at last, shall be forgiven.-Refrain.
