You should know my little darling,
You left my poor heart in distress.
I got a letter from my darling,
She said she hated to go.
It broke my heart the words she wrote me,
She closed by saying I love you so.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
This letter meant goodbye forever,
Though we'll have each other's hearts.
Our love will fade away in sadness,
Precious one why do we have to part?
* * *Chorus
She wrote the words she knew would hurt me,
She said I never could be true.
I've tried, I'ved tried my little darling,
To prove my love was just for you.
* * *Chorus
