How Could I Ever Be Single Again?

I've travelled together with cold hearted people

Far from my home by the beautiful sea

I've travelled along through all sorrows and dangers

But, how could I ever be single again?

So, talk to me softly before you must leave me

Talk to me gently but say what you will

I think of you often, glad memories recalling

But, how could I ever be single again?

I've lived all alone, beneath cold winters shadow

I've sat near the brook, where we used to lay

I'll never get over how suddenly you left me

But, how could I ever be single again?

So, talk to me tenderly as you are leaving

Talk to me gently but say what you must

I think of you often, glad memories recalling

But, how could I ever be single again?

So, talk to me softly before you must leave me

Talk to me gently but say what you will

I think of you often, glad memories recalling

But, how could I ever be single again?
