Once I loved a pretty woman till one day she up and ran 
S'pose I should have felt [bad word] 
But it's hard to think of her with another man 
Oh my lady I need you 
Though from time to time I don't seem to 

 Once the sun shone in my garden 
Till my love took off and left me with the rain 
Now my heart and I are starting 
To forget it all and start out again 
Oh my lady I need you 
Though from time to time I don't seem to 

 My heart is hurting bad 
And all the trees look so sad 
And all the love we could have had 
Oo from time to time
