Don't Ever Love Me Lyrics

While in that gay tropic isle
I first saw that maiden smile
Though I had failed in the past
I said this is true love at last
But then she whispered to me
That our love never could beDestiny, oh when will I see the day?
Hopelessly, I've wandered so long this way
This could never be, she said pleadingly
Don't ever love me, I'm just fancy-free
This could never be, she said pleadingly
Don't ever love me
My love was motion and grace
The moonlight soft on her face
I held her close in my arms
My heart was quick to her charms
But then I saw in her glance
It was just an evening's romanceDestiny, oh when will I see the day?
Hopelessly, I've wandered so long this way

This could never be, she said pleadingly
Don't ever love me, I'm just fancy-free
This could never be, she said pleadingly
Don't ever love meThis could never be, she said pleadingly
Don't ever love me
