[Verse 1]
Here alone I'm broken-hearted
Since the day when we first parted
Cheers of love for you were started
Since you left Sorrento, dear

[Verse 2]
Birds and flowers in profusion
Seem to add to my confusion
And that with a gay conclusion
Come back to Sorrento, dear

[Verse 3]
I have trusting and believing
That you'll come back and end my grieving
Love, true love is worth retrieving
It is waiting for you here

[Verse 4]
Love is waiting here
Sadness goes when you return
Come back to Sorrento
And bring me cheer

[Verse 4]
Love is waiting here
Sadness goes when you return
Come back to Sorrento
And bring me cheer
