We Five If I Were Alone
If I were alone
When autumn comes round
Shakes all the leaves until they cover the ground
Oh, ho, then I'd go alone
To a corner of despair
I'd a-wait for you
Oh, ho, I'd pretend
That autumn wasn't there
If I were alone
When the snow start to fall
And a flicker from the candle glowing shadows across the wall
Oh, ho, I'd stay by the fire
But I'd shiver with the cold
For I could not be warm
Oh, ho, oh, without you, without you
There to hold
But all the good days would return if you
Just come back to me
Please come back to me
Like, oh, like you used to do
Summer comes around
It'll warm these chilly days
And spring has painted all the leaves
That autumn took away
That's when you better hurry home
To that corner of despair
For like the seasons come and go
Oh, then you won't find me waiting there
But all the good days would return if you
Just come back to me
Please come back to me
Like, oh, like you used to do
