They say that love's a gentle thing To me, brought only pain Since the only man I ever loved Is 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 Now, the train pulled out, the whistle blew With a long and lonesome moan 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 Now, there's many a change in the winter wind And a change in the clouds' design There's many a change in the 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
