The sweetest boy I found in this world he left me tonight.
Now I'm so sad although I see the stars shine so bright.
Oh Lord, please send him back to me! Be so kind,
or at least take him off my mind
or at least take him off my mind,
take him off my mind!

Why did he go, he left my home without any word.
I should have tried to make him stay but I felt so hurt.
Oh Lord, please send him back to me! Be so kind,
or at least take him off my mind
or at least take him off my mind,
take him off my mind!

I 'll keep my hope that he will reflect decide to return,
but if he'll stay away from me my heart it will burn.
Oh Lord, please send him back to me! Be so kind,
or at least take him off my mind
or at least take him off my mind,
take him off my mind!

Take him off my mind!
