Verse:
A song bird yearns to sing a love song
The ros -es yearn just for the dew
The whole world's yearn -ing for the sun -shine
I have a yearn -ing too

Chorus:
Yearn -ing just for you
That's all I do my dear
Learn -ing why I'm blue
I wish that you were near
Smiles have turned to tears
Days have turned to years
Yearn -ing just for you
I hope you're yearn -ing too.
