Lyrics
[verse]
The porch light's burning but the house is still
Since you walked off down that lonesome hill
I count the days on fingers turning numb
Waiting on the sound of you to come
[chorus]
Little darlin', won't you ease my mind
Little darlin', I've been left behind
Every promise that I ever made is true
Little darlin', I belong to you
[verse]
The letters pile up, never get a reply
The neighbors ask me and I can't tell them why
I'd cross an ocean, I'd walk through flame
Just to hear somebody call your name
[bridge]
Come on back before the summer's through
There ain't a version of tomorrow without you
I'll change whatever made you run
Just say the word and I'll become that one
[chorus]
Little darlin', won't you ease my mind
Little darlin', I've been left behind
Every promise that I ever made is true
Little darlin', I belong to you
