Lyrics
I Never Will Marry
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some say that love's a gentle thing
But it's only brought me pain
"Cause the only one I ever did love
Has gone with the midnight train
I never will marry, never take me a wife
I expect to live single all the rest of my life
The train pulled out the whistle blew
With a low and a lonesome mourn
She's gone, she's gone like the midnight dew
And left me here alone
I never will marry, never take me a wife
I expect to live single all the rest 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 girls heart
But never a change in mine
I never will marry, never take me a wife
I expect to live single all the rest of my life
