They say that love's a gentle thing To me it brought only pain
Since the only man I ever loved Has gone on the morning train
I never will marry I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single For the rest of my life
Well, the train pulled out The whistle blew
With a long and a lonesome hold He's gone, he's gone like the morning dew
And left me all alone I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife I will remain single
For the rest of my life
Well, there's many a change in the winter wind And a change in the clouds' design
There's many a change in a young girl's heart But never a change in mine
I never will marry I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single For the rest of my life
I never will marry I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single For the rest of my life
