BARBRA STREISAND - I Had Myself A True Love lyrics

rate me

I had myself a true love

A true love who was something to see

I had myself a true love

At least that's what I kept on telling me

The first thing in the morning

I still try to think of a way to be with him

Some part of the evening

And that's the way I live through the day

I had myself a true love, but now he's gone

And left me for good

The Lord knows I don't hear those back yard

Whispers going round the neighborhood

There maybe a lot of things I miss

A lot of things I don't know

But I do know this, now I ain't got no love

And once upon a time I had a true love

In the evening, in the doorway

While I stand there and wait for his coming

With the house swept and the clothes hung

And a pot on the stove where I had meal

Where is he while I waste the rising newel?

Where is he, why did he gone so soon?

Now there ain't no way that it used to be, what now?

And everybody keeps telling me

There may be a lot of things I miss

A lot of things I don't know

But I do know this now I ain't got no love

And once upon a time I had a true love
