She never had too much of money 
Friendly strangers were all she knew 
Nobody ever came to call but you 
I would not say she isn't happy 
Though the eyes of a fool 
Will make her blue 
Nobody's ever seen the tears 
It's true 
I guess nobody wanted to 
We'll have a celebration 
Ice cream and candy cakes 
She's very young to go 
So far away 
And then there'll be the papers 
In black and white 
To say we're through 
Nobody every loved me 
Quite like you 
I guess nobody wanted to 
And there'll be roses 
In the springtime still 
I guess there will 
I wish her roses and song 
And she'll be older 
As years go by, 
And how they fly 
Will she be lonely 
Without me along? 
She doesn't make friends easily 
She's only known a few 
The incidental stranger 
Passing through 
On Sundays and holidays 
I'll take her far away 
We never tried to save 
The love we knew 
I guess nobody wanted to
