Abigail, Don't Be Long
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.
I saw you standing in the sycamore shade
Bending promises your mother made
Writing letters on a wooden fence
I know you're keeping it in confidence
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
You know the pen you're holding in your hand?
It's like the summer for a freezing man
Abigail, when am I gonna learn?
The empty pages will never make the fire burn
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
I know you never liked the London rain
You'd trade the tower for a weather vane
But Abigail, now won't you stay a spell?
You've got me praying at your wishing well
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be
Ooh, Abigail don't be
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
