Day and night I worry over you

I'm payin' now for bein' so untrue

I pray each night although it seems in vain

I know I'll never win your love again



I won your love for such a precious jewel

You pleaded dear and yet I was so cruel

A love so rare cannot be bound and chained

I know I'll never win your love again

[ steel ]

I try so hard to change what cannot be

And yet how weak my efforts seem to me

In fate's cruel hands forever I'll remain

I know I'll never win your love again



Within my heart there'll always be a chill

Until at last it's beating shall be still

My weary soul will find it's journey's end

I know I'll never win your love again
