Well here in my heart there's a story untold Of a girl who left me standing standing in the cold And since she's been away I've never had a happy day I hope and I pray that she'll hear my plea And maybe someday she'll come back to me For here in my heart there's a story untold But after all you've said and done you said we'd be as one But darling I found I was wrong But what did you do right from the start You made of fool of me and then you broke my heart Well I hope and I pray that she'll hear my plea And maybe someday she'll come back to me For here in my heart there's a story untold a story story untold
