Nightless Lover (10-23-50) - Percy Mayfield, Mayfield-Morris

Oh, Nightless Lover, there are times when I just sit and cry

Waiting and watching the days go by

When day has ended, I’m alone my dear

When shadows fall, my heart starts to plead and call for your love

Nightless Lover, I’m tortured waiting 'til the moon rise

For it’s most of nights that you would come around

Please don’t send me someone else, and not myself

And my love for you is out of bound

When it starts raining, I feel like a stranger left all alone

The love you had for me is gone, but I hope I’m wrong

I hope it won’t be long before you return

To me, to me, to me
