Leaves on the tree begin to whisper to the wind
Blowing like a glowing flame
Saying my girl is going to leave me
For another one again
And my love was all in vain
My heart was all in vain
And my friend tried to tell me
That she'd take my love and be run
But I should have taken heed and listened
And I wouldn't have missed you since you'd gone
And my love was all in vain
And my friend was all in vain
Yes this girl has hurt me again
Like an old man told me
All the pain must come to an end
When we go to the places
Where we used to go
Oh, my friends all say I don't look the same
But I just laugh, keep right on smilin'
While my heart carries a lasting pain
And my love was all in vain
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, yeah
