Learning To Love

I courted a man from the Lancs Fusiliers

He gave me his heart and so I loved him dear

For he took me a-courting and he taught me to dance

Then he marched with the infantry over to France

He told me to wait he'd be back in a year

Now seventeen months I have wished he were here

And I'll wait no longer, I'll take what I can

So I'm learning to love with another young man

[Chorus]

Learning to love

Learning to love

Tired of the waiting

I'm learning to love

So I courted a man from the Royal Horse Blues

He soon had to leave and I said I'd be true

Now he's gone for his duty not seven weeks yet

So I've found a new young man to help me forget

[Chorus]

I courted a man from the Kent Volunteer

Now he's gone a-marching, and I wish he were here

What can I do while my love is away?

But court with a soldier from the Royal Scots Grey

[Chorus]

One day they'll come back and then I'll be true

For I've learnt how to love and I've learnt how to choose

To every young woman who waits at the shore

Love while you're waiting; you'll learn so much more

[Chorus]
