Just look at you, lying there.. You should see the way the morning. dances in your hair.. . I'm tempted so to wake you just to see. you smile and hold you gently to me.
I hear footsteps slowly walking as they gently walk across a lonely floor. And a voice is softly saying darling this will be goodbye forever more. There goes my reason for living there goes the one of my dreams.
(It's a thing called sadness). It's been here since you've been gone it's been hanging round too long. A thing called sadness not much of a friend when you walked out it walked in.
The sun goes down it leaves me sad and blue. The iron curtain falls on this cold war with you. Through you won't speak and I won't speak that's true. Two stubborn people with a cold war to go through.
Eyes that stay awake until the day is dawning. Tears that break my heart in two. Chains that bind my heart inside me. And that's what I get for loving you.
There are twenty-three hours that I can get by. But the twenty-fourth hour is the one when I cry. I pray that it won't come, but it comes anyhow. And the twenty-fourth hour is right about now.
You've got a way of makin' me blue and I've got a way of hurtin' you too. Oh what a terrible tangled web we're we. You've got a gentleman of the side and I've got a friend that I'm tryin' to hide.
I know I'm not your first love but there'll just be past memory. For I'm the one that's got you now that's all that matters to me. I know other arms have held you but I'm not jealous of these.
Take these chains from my heart and set me free. You've grown cold and no longer care for me. All my faith in you is gone but the heartaches linger on.
When your alone at night with the world locked outside. Have a talk to your heart about me. If your's told that it's right that we stay apart. Then let me come in and talk to your heart.
Why must you always try to make me over. Take me as I am or let me go. White lilies never grow on stalks of clover. Take me as I am or let me go. You're trying to reshape me like your old love.
Touch my heart feel the hurt it's destroying me. I've tried but can't seem to shake her memory. Touch my heart feel the hurt the pain and misery. Then tell me again what love can do for me.
Twinkle twinkle little star. How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high. Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle twinkle little star. How I wonder what you are.
Too late too late to ask forgiveness too late too late for me to cry. You've gone you've gone you left this morning I should have known you'd say goodbye.
I gave you everything that you asked for. I never criticized the things you do. Now I see what I'm letting myself in for. I'm afraid that too much love is spoiling you.
Together again. My tears have stopped falling. The long lonely nights. Are now at an end. . The key to my heart. You hold in your hand. And nothing else matters.
Just try being lonely and you'll know just how I feel. I saw you with your new love and oh it hurt me so. Funny how I see your face everywhere I go. You smiled and looked to be so happy as you passed by.
It was a stylish congregation you could see they'd been around. And they had the biggest pipe organ of any church in town. But over in the Amen Corner of that church sat Brother Ira.
I have just cheated and I know I was wrong. But temptation found me when I wasn't strong. Oh I chanced a lifetime for one careless night. Shall I tell her the truth and break her heart.
Don't scorn me if I slip around on you don't hate me if I fancy someone new. Don't blame me if my love just can't be true. It's the tricks of the trade I've learn from you.
