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 darling 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, The voice in the wilderness brought comfort to me
We had a quarrel, I was unkind Why did you leave me Love made me blind
My darling forgive me I long for your touch Have pity come back now I need you so much
Believe me and you'll hear it That voice from above The voice in the wilderness The voice of true love
Believe me and you'll hear it That voice from above The voice in the wilderness The voice of true love
