Gordon Lightfoot
"Same Old Loverman"

I'm not some long lost someone

Just dropped in to say hello

It's that same old lover man

Baby you lost so long ago



'Cause I was born to believe

I never could deceive, believe me



I hear no children's voices

Have they gone back to school

And that same old lover man

Is still acting like a fool



I guess I was born to bring you grief

Though I never was a thief, believe me



It's cold outside your window

Please let me in, the night is wild

It's that same old lover man

Not some lonesome winsome child



An' I was born to believe

I never could deceive
