Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
I have given you my true love
But you love a new love
What am I supposed to do now
With you now, you’re through now
You’ll be on your merry way
And there’s only this to say
Chorus
I’m through with love
I’ll never fall again
Said “Adieu” to love
Don’t ever call again
For I must have you or no one
And so I’m through with love
I’ve locked my heart
I’ll keep my feelings there
I have stocked my heart with icy, frigid air
And I mean to care for no one
Because I’m through with love
Why did you lead me
To think you could care?
You didn’t need me
For you had your share
Of slaves around you
To hound you and swear
With deep emotion and devotion to you
Goodbye to spring and all it meant to me
It can never bring the thing that used to be
For I must have you or no one
And so I’m through with love
