Abigail, Don't Be Long

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
