Once I loved a pretty woman till one day she up and ran

S'pose I should have felt it coming

But it's hard to think of her with another man

Oh my lady I need you

Though from time to time I don't seem to



Once the sun shone in my garden

Till my love took off and left me with the rain

Now my heart and I are starting

To forget it all and start out again

Oh my lady I need you

Though from time to time I don't seem to



My heart is hurting bad

And all the trees look so sad

And all the love we could have had

Oo from time to time
