Lyrics
My Darling Girl
Michael de' Albuquerque
I am not joking think
I’m gonna quit
Cause I am no stranger
From taking all of this
But your leaving for the North Country
Oh my love why do you treat me this way
My darling girl
My pretty one
I was your lover
I was your king
For you my darling
I have done most anything
I’ve longing for you both day and night
But now you leave me mourning for the rest of my life
My darling girl
My pretty one
Well I’m not crying
It’s just the rain
Beating on my window
like frozen drops of pain
As you climb into the taxi outside
You never known I broke down and cried
My darling girl
My pretty one
As you climb into the taxi outside
You never known I broke down and cried
My darling girl
my pretty one
My darling girl
What have you done
My darling girl My darling girl
