Lyrics

Poor boy couldn't give, poor girl didn't want
So, their love for each other grew strong
They talked it over and soon they were wed
In the little church in town, friends gathered 'round
And smiled as their new life began
Trust in each other and our love will grow
Even grow stronger than strong
I'll buy you a pillow, with these words, I love you
To keep 'til our new life must end
Poor boy worked hard, poor girl grew tired
So, her love grew colder than cold
She dreamed of riches that he couldn't give
What difference to her if the poor boy was hurt
She left him for a rich life to live
Trust in each other and our love will grow
But her love grew colder than cold
She left him the pillow, with these words, I love you
There's hurt in the poor boy untold
There's hurt in the poor boy untold
