• Dark Haired True Lover

I once had a dark haired true lover
She was all the world to me
She promised herself to another
Now don't you think it was me.

I was young when I wrote my first letter
I blotted the lines with tears
But now I am old, I know better
We've parted for many long years.

Take back every word you have spoken
Let it be as though we've never met
For tonight I'm a poor boy heartbroken
I'll forgive but I'll never forget.

Oh, Ruth, Oh, Ruth, how I love you
You just seemed to me like a bird
Although you went back on your promise
Although you went back on your word.

Take back every word you have spoken
Let it be as though we've never met
For tonight I'm a poor boy heartbroken
I'll forgive but I'll never forget.

We parted in the month of September
Some say we parted for life
But I hope some day or another
I'll call you my sweet darling wife.

Take back every word you have spoken
Let it be as though we've never met
For tonight I'm a poor boy heartbroken
I'll forgive but I'll never forget.

I wish I had someone to love me
Someone to call me their own
I'm out in this wide world a-wandering
I'm tired of living alone.
