I never did sing you a love song 가사

I never did sing you a love song I only sang phrases in time I never did write you a sonnet I just laid my cards down in rhymes Up and down the river, so many boats to ride Yet precious few deliver the goods that we need to survive I never spoke falsely or crossly I never put tears in your eyes And you never shattered my lonely heart You never deceived me with lies And yet somehow I seem to recall I stood in my sleep for a while Dreaming of a river man exchanging my life for a smile
