[00:06.93]You're on the other side of the world tonight
[00:12.40]But under the same cold stars
[00:17.50]And tonight I'll dream you right back home
[00:20.26]To this little life of ours
[00:27.20]We'll walk hand in hand through fields of green
[00:32.70]Just like we did last year
[00:37.40]But it's so hard to wake up every day
[00:40.61]And watch as your dreams disappear
[00:47.21]It's quiet here, your little boy's asleep
[00:52.00]He looks more like you every day
[00:55.74]Won't you come back, come back my darlin'
[01:01.24]Each night I pray on bended knee
[01:05.94]Won't you come back to the Green Mountains and me
[01:15.23]I see a car winding up the driveway
[01:20.80]Up to your parents' place
[01:25.17]The old man looks up from his raking
[01:28.55]As the color drains from your mama's face
[01:34.98]Cryin' softly by the window now
[01:38.75]While your daddy shakes the soldiers hands
[01:45.26]Their taillights disappear into the woods below
[01:49.40]He's frozen in the doorway where he stands
[01:55.47]In the twilight, in the silent snow
[02:00.54]I hear you singing in my ear
[02:04.30]Won't you come back, come back my darlin
[02:09.39]Each night I pray on bended knee
[02:14.22]Won't you come back to the Green Mountains and me
[02:43.54]The seasons come and the seasons go
[02:48.79]We live from day to day
[02:53.86]And I lose a little bit of myself
[02:57.10]With each tear I wipe away
[03:03.82]People on the street used to stop and chat
[03:08.60]Now they look down and walk on by
[03:12.78]Won't you come back, come back my darlin
[03:17.72]Each night I pray on bended knee
[03:22.56]Won't you come back to the Green Mountains
