  lyrics from reprint of 1966 sheet music

  G
  Though you've played at love and lost
  And sorrow's turned your heart to frost

  C
  I will melt 

              G
  Your heart again

  Remember the feeling as a child
  When you woke up and morning smiled?

       C                          G
  It's time you felt like you did then



  G               F               G             F
  There's just no percentage in remembering the past

       G                   F             Em
  It's time you learned to live again at last

  G         Am7       G     Am7   G      Am7     G   Am7
  Come with me, leave yesterday behind

      G      Am7   G       Am7       G
  And take a giant step outside your mind


      G
  You stare at me in disbelief
  And say for you there's no relief

  C
  But I swear

                 G
  I'll prove you wrong



  Don't stay here in your lonely room
  Just looking back in silent gloom

  C
  That's not where

        G
  You belong



  G                  F                  G
  Come with me, I'll take you where the taste of life is green

      G               F             Em
  And ev'ry day holds wonders to be seen

  G         Am7       G     Am7   G      Am7     G   Am7
  Come with me, leave yesterday behind

      G      Am7   G       Am7       G
  And take a giant step outside your mind
