Come to the door my pretty one
                            
Put on you rings and precious things
                                             
Hide all your tears as best you can
                          
Try to recall what we once had
                                           
     Roses are waiting for dewdrops to fall
                                          
     Climbing your windows and walls
                                                
     Bells in the steeple are ringing, singing
                       
     Listen to them talk about
               
     Your Love's Return

Let me come in my pretty one
And try to undo what I have done
For I must be forgiven now
I will not lose what I have won
    Roses are waiting for dewdrops to fall
    Climbing your windows and walls
    Leaves in the garden are falling, calling
    Listen to them talk about
    Your Love's Return
Open the door my pretty one
Wake from your sleep and take me home
Open your eyes and look my way
I cannot leave your love alone
    (chorus same as first)
