Some say that love's a gentle thing But it's only brought me pain 'Cause the only one I ever did love Has gone with the midnight train. I never will marry, never take me a wife I expect to live single all the rest of my life. The train pulled out the whistle blew With a low and a lonesome mourn She's gone, she's gone like the midnight dew And left me here alone. I never will marry, never take me a wife I expect to live single all the rest of my life. There's many a change in the winter wind And a change in the clouds design There's many a change in a young girls heart But never a change in mine. I never will marry, never take me a wife I expect to live single all the rest of my life...
