Time Will Cure Me

Lonely the life that once I led 
  Strange the paths on which we tread. 
  Led me to you, and lightly but true 
  As ever, girl, clouding my view. 

  Rainy the day the first time we met 
  Deep was the talk as we lay on your bed 
  It didn't seem wrong to sing a sad song 
  As ever, girl, soon you'd be gone. 

  Early the morning and sad the goodbye 
  With a wave of your hand and a smile of your eye 
  So lately did meet, no sooner to part 
  As ever, girl, homeward must start 

  Rosy the lines that you wrote with your hand 
  Reading between them to misunderstand 
  I made a mistake you said not to make 
  ..................................... 

  Yes, reading your letters conviction did grow 
  I thought it a chance and I knew I must go 
  It's hard to believe I could be so naive 
  As ever, girl, flattered but to deceive 

  And now you've just told me that friendship is all 
  I'm forced to repair the breach in my wall 
  Illusions and dreams as usual, it seems 
  As ever, girl, they have been my downfall. 

  Lonely the life and dismal the view 
  Closed is the road that leads to you 
  Since better can't be, as friends we'll agree 
  As ever, girl, time will cure me.
