Can You Tell Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Can you tell me when the rains will be ending
Can you tell me when the clouds will blow away
Could you tell me when my love will be returning
Or do you think my love has gone to stay
Once my days were filled with happy sunshine
At night we'd watch the stars come out to play
But now the clouds have covered up my rainbows since the one I love has gone away
So can you tell me...
[ el.banjo ]
Since she left my world's been dark and lonely
Sometimes it's hard to tell the night from day
Lord I'd give a part of my share in heaven
Just to see the one I love come home to stay
So can you tell me...
Oh tell me that my love's not gone to stay
