Well, it's hard to love and not be loved
It's hard to please your mind
When you've broken the heart of many a poor boy
But you'll never break this heart of mine
Can't you see that lonesome ship that sails
That sails from shore to shore
If I was on that lonesome ship
I'd sail away no more
[Chorus:]
Well I wish I was a pretty little bird
I wish I was a pretty little bee
I wish I was so far away
No more you'd see of me
[Chorus:]
The blackest crow that ever flew
Will never turn to white
If you will prove your love to me
I'd turn my day to night
[Chorus:]
Oh Lord
No you'll never break this heart of mine
Chorus: Well, it's hard to love and not be loved It's hard to please your mind When you've broken the heart of many a poor boy But you'll never break this heart of mine Can't you see that lonesome ship that sails That sails from shore to shore If I was on that lonesome ship I'd sail away no more [Chorus:] Well I wish I was a pretty little bird I wish I was a pretty little bee I wish I was so far away No more you'd see of me [Chorus:] The blackest crow that ever flew Will never turn to white If you will prove your love to me I'd turn my day to night [Chorus:] Oh Lord No you'll never break this heart of mine Explain Request ×
