[Verse 1:]
I'm not some long lost someone
Just dropped in to say hello
I'm the same old lover man
Baby, lost so long ago

[Chorus:]
'Cause I was born to believe
I never could deceive, believe me

[Verse 2:]
I hear no children's voices
Have they gone back to school
It's the same old lover man
Baby, still actin' like some kinda fool

[Chorus]

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3:]
It's cold outside your window
Please let me in the night is wild
I'm the same old lover man
Baby, not some lonesome innocent child
Yes, I was born to bring a grief
Though I never was a thief
I'm the same old lover man
Baby, just dropped in to say what's new
[Chorus:]
Yes, I was born to bring a grief
I never could deceive, believe me
