Abigail, Don't Be Long Lyrics

I saw you standing in the sycamore shade,
Bending promises your mother made
Writing letters on a wooden fence,
I know you're keeping it in confidence
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long

You know the pen you're holding in your hand?
It's like the summer for a freezing man
Abigail, when am I gonna learn?
The empty pages will never make the fire burn,
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh.

Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be long

I know you never liked the London rain,
You'd trade the tower for a weather vane,
But Abigail, now won't you stay a spell?
You've got me praying at your wishing well,
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long,
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
Ooh, Abigail don't be,
Ooh, Abigail don't be,
Ooh, Abigail don't be long
