Harry Belafonte I Never Will Marry song lyrics

Some say that love? s a gentle thing

But it? s only brought me pain? Cause the only one I ever did love

Has gone with the midnight train I never will marry, never take me a wife

I expect to live single all the rest of my life The train pulled out the whistle blew

With a low and a lonesome mourn

She? s gone, she? s gone like the midnight dew

And left me here alone I never will marry, never take me a wife

I expect to live single all the rest of my life There? s many a change in the winter wind

And a change in the clouds design

There? s many a change in a young girls heart

But never a change in mine I never will marry, never take me a wife

I expect to live single all the rest of my life
