It's Tommy Mercer time now
As the Anthony balladeer does his baritone best
With the lyrics of an oldie by Duke Ellington
According to Tommy, "I Let a Song Go Out of My Heart"
I let a song go out of my heart
It was the sweetest melody
I know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song
Since you and I have drifted apart
Life doesn't mean a thing to me
Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong
Am I too late to make amends?
You know that we were meant to be
More than just friends, just friends
I let a song go out of my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
