Lyrics
No, not true
When beside thee, years ago
I was want to speak of love
Can you remember the bright glow
Then our beating hearts did move
When beside thee years ago
I was want to speak of love
Ah! No, ’tis not true, Ah! no
No, ’tis not true, no no
Can you remember the bright glow
That then our beating hearts did move
No, ’tis not true, Ah!
Do you recall what then you said
“I will ever love as now”
Ah! your heart was cold and dead
With but lips you spoke the vow
Do you recall what then you said
“I will every love as now”
Ah! No, ’tis not true, Ah! no
No, ’tis not true, no no
Your heart then was cold ad dead
With lips alone you spoke the vow
No, ’tis not true, No, ’tis not true
