The Lady I Love 1932

Love, Love,
I'm singing a sad lament,
Love I thought heaven sent
has filled me with discontent.

Just because I miss her,
she leaves me by myself all the time,
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
Just because she knows it
she hurts me
for no reason or rhyme.
It's hard to believe,
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
She even thinks
she's doing me a favour
just because she holds my hand,
and I admit
that I consider it a favour
when she does,
Oh! but it's grand.
Just because I gave her my heart
have I committed a crime?
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of,
the lady I love.

Just because I miss her,
she leaves me by myself all the time,
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
Just because she knows it
she hurts me
for no reason or rhyme.
It's hard to believe,
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
She even thinks
she's doing me a favour
just because she holds my hand,
and I admit
that I consider it a favour
when she does,
Oh! but it's grand.
Just because I gave her my heart
have I committed a crime?
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of,
the lady I love.

It seems that fate
has thrown down the glove,
now that the moon above
has sent me
this thing called love.

Just because I miss her,
she leaves me by myself all the time,
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
Just because she knows it
she hurts me
for no reason or rhyme.
It's hard to believe,
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
She even thinks
she's doing me a favour
just because she holds my hand,
and I admit
that I consider it a favour
when she does,
Oh! but it's grand.
Just because I gave her my heart
have I committed a crime?
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of,
the lady I love.

Just because I miss her,
she leaves me by myself all the time,
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
Just because she knows it
she hurts me
for no reason or rhyme.
It's hard to believe,
that I'm speaking of
the lady I love.
She even thinks
she's doing me a favour
just because she holds my hand,
and I admit
that I consider it a favour
when she does,
Oh! but it's grand.
Just because I gave her my heart
have I committed a crime?
It's hard to believe
that I'm speaking of,
the lady I love.
