Walking down the streets of my hometown
I'm back again to end my roaming round
I'm looking for the girl I left behind
The one I love an old sweetheart of mine

I only meant to 'round before a while
I said goodbye my heart was young and wild
I wonder if she missed me all the time
The way I missed an old sweetheart of mine

I traveled, traveled never could I find a girl
Like an old sweetheart of mine
I hear the church bells ring as I pass by
There goes the happy groom and lovely bride
My heart stops beating as her eyes meet
Too late I found that old sweetheart of mine

Walking down the streets of my hometown
I'm on my way I guess I roam around
But as I go I leave my heart behind
I'll always love that old sweetheart of mine
I'll always love that old sweetheart of mine
