Please know my love was true I've never been so blue Life as I once knew Ended with you Kindly and idly I'll wait Until you come my way This Christmas day I'm spending so lonely Love has seemed to flee Like leaves on the tree I'm so barren Wasn't meant to be sharing your love Now look what I've become Though I have tried My god have I tried To continue on My mind can't move forward and my heart withdraws You got taken with the winter snow Seems I only had you to borrow Even if tomorrow you find a new lover Or you're all alone I hope your new life feels like home And since you weren't ready I won't be ready No I can't go steady with anyone Love is meant to be given despite its return And I fear my heart may forever yearn Thus the nature of my soul remains forlorn I'm so forlorn
