Love Please Come Home

As you read this letter that I write to you
 Sweetheart I hope you'll understand
 That you're the only love I knew (note 1)
 Please forgive me if you can
 Chorus
 Sweetheart I beg you to come home tonight
 I'm so blue and all alone
 I promise that I'll treat you right
 Love, oh love, oh please come home
 That old wind is cold and slowly creeping round
 And the fire is burning low
 The snow has covered up the ground
 Our baby's hungry, sick and cold (note 2)
 [chorus]
 As you read this letter that I write to you (note 3)
 Sweetheart I hope you'll understand
 That you're the only love I knew
 Please forgive me if you can
 [chorus]
 [chorus]
 Love, oh love, oh please come home
 Love, oh love, oh please come home
