I'M COMING BACK BUT I DON'T KNOW WHEN
(Charlie Monroe)
« © '65 Peer International, BMI »

CHORUS: I'm going down this [or "that"] lonesome road
To find my fate or victory
Our God must [or "will"] help us there to win
I'm coming back but I don't know when

I hate to leave my mother dear
My father who is old and gray
But my true love I know you'll wait [or "will wait"]
Till I come back to you someday [or "to stay"]

When I come back will you be here,
Or will your love fade like a rose?
I can never come back and find you gone [or "should you be gone"]
My love for you nobody knows.
