Harry Worth

I met them first on their wedding night

Faces were flushed by their pledges plight

We passed in the hall and I met them well

But as their carriage arrived, I found that I couldn't quite tell them

It's not very far from tears to mirth

There are not many moments that will capture your breath

It's not very long that you spend on this earth

She'd never know just what Harry was worth

She'll never know

He walked the wet sands of summertime

Rain beat the window in drummertime

Cruel with his humour

She was quick with her tongue

But though a year had passed

The honeymoon didn't last

Somehow they didn't seem young

It's not very far from tears to mirth

There are not many moments that will capture your breath

It's not very long that you spend on this earth

She'd never know just what Harry was worth

She'll never know

They're on their holidays

But they still find a reason to fight

No matter how long they stay

Can't make the rest of the year right

Five years had passed 'til I happened along

He said, "Do you hear that noise? Well, that once was our song"

I looked in her eyes and saw barely a spark

He laughed too loud then he drank until dark

It's not very far from tears to mirth

It's not many moments that will capture your breath

It's not very long that you spend on this earth

She'd never know just what Harry was worth

She'll never know what Harry was worth

She'll never know what Harry was worth

No, she'll never know what Harry was worth

She'll never know what Harry was worth

No, she'll never know what Harry was worth

She'll never know what Harry was worth
