Verse 2

I see a car winding up the driveway

Up to your parents' place

The old man looks up from his raking

As the color drains from your mama's face

Cryin' softly by the window now

While your daddy shakes the soldiers hands

Their taillights disappear into the woods below

He's frozen in the doorway where he stands

Pre-chorus 2

In the twilight, in the silent snow

I hear you singing in my ear

Chorus

Won't you come back, come back my darlin’

Each night I pray on a bended knee

Won’t you come back to the Green Mountains and me

Verse 3

The seasons come and the seasons go

We live from day to day

And I lose a little bit of myself

With each tear I wipe away

Pre-chorus 3

People on the street used to stop and chat

Now they look down and walk on by

Chorus

Won't you come back, come back my darlin’

Each night I pray on a bended knee

Won’t you come back to the Green Mountains and me
