One Little Word

歌詞

The dream of love is over Today we said goodbye We parted not in anger Though tears came in her eyes 'Twas just as fate decreed, dear That we should never wed Yet in her heart she loved me She married wealth instead One little word could've changed my future life One little word could've made her my wife Too late, too late, now my fondest hopes are dead One little word, that word was never said Since schooldays we had been sweethearts She was her father's pride Her folks lived in a mansion Our cottage by its side Though years have brought their changes The same old love tale told She wed to please her parents A man of wealth and gold One little word could've changed my future life One little word could've made her my wife Too late, too late, now my fondest hopes are dead One little word, that word was never said
