Only You

You were fair with gold in your hair

And gold everywhere you turned

I was strong, not one to tag along

Nothing left to lose or even try for

Or to gain

Lovely you

Only you could bear the love and all the pain

And there's only you

There's only you

All the while we danced away the hours

Never really quite in time

And all your lies to my unsuspecting smiles

Couldn't get much further than my heart

And there they die

Fare thee well, oh shield yourself well

I hope the bitter winds don't chill

Until you're back I'll be waiting for you, lass

Nothing left to lose or even try for

Or to gain

Lovely you

Only you could bear the love and all the pain

And there's only you

Only you
