Gordon Lightfoot Lyrics
"Same Old Loverman"

I'm not some long lost someone
Just dropped in to say hello
It's that same old lover man
Baby you lost so long ago

'Cause I was born to believe
I never could deceive, believe me

I hear no children's voices
Have they gone back to school
And that same old lover man
Is still acting like a fool

I guess I was born to bring you grief
Though I never was a thief, believe me

It's cold outside your window
Please let me in, the night is wild
It's that same old lover man
Not some lonesome winsome child

An' I was born to believe
I never could deceive
