Lyrics
Chorus
Oh, sweetheart Lona, my darling Lona
Why have you gone away?
You said you loved me
But if you loved me
Why did you act this way?
If I had ever been untrue to you
What you have done would be the thing to do
But my heart aches, dear
And it will break, dear
If you don’t come back home again to San
Chorus
Oh, sweetheart Lona, my darling Lona
Have you come back to stay?
You said you loved me
I knew you loved me
I knew you’d come some day
If I had ever been untrue to you
What you have done would be the thing to do
But now you’re mine, dear
For all the time, dear
And you’re forgiven by your loving San
