Some say that love is a gentle thing
But it's only brought me pain
And the only boy I ever lost
Has gone on the morning train.
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life.
The train pulled out and the whistle blew
With a long and a lonesome mourn
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 expect to live single
All the days of my life
There's many a change in the winter wind
And a change in the clouds design
There's many a change in a young man's heart
Never a change in mine
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life.
But it's only brought me pain
And the only boy I ever lost
Has gone on the morning train.
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life.
The train pulled out and the whistle blew
With a long and a lonesome mourn
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 expect to live single
All the days of my life
There's many a change in the winter wind
And a change in the clouds design
There's many a change in a young man's heart
Never a change in mine
I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I expect to live single
All the days of my life.
