A Voice In The Wilderness lyrics by Cliff Richard

My heart was so heavy
with longing for you
My arms were so lonely,
lonesome and blue

Alone in my sorrow,
I heard a voice cry
A voice in the wilderness,
a voice from the sky

Have faith in your darlin',
the voice seemed to say
Be true to her memory,
she'll come back one day

And though there was no one,
nobody to see
A voice in the wilderness
brought comfort to me

We had a quarrel
I was unkind
Why did she leave me
Love made me blind

Come back to me, darlin',
I yearn for your touch
Have pity, come back now,
I need you so much

Believe me and you'll hear it,
the voice from above
The voice in the wilderness,
a voice of true love

Please believe me and you'll hear it,
the voice from above
The voice in the wilderness,
the voice of true love
