Poor Old Heartsick Me

Poor old heartsick me Twice as lonely as a girl ought to be What will the future be For poor old heartsick me I thought I was mute to that big yellow moon And its magic fell all of pure snow In the moonlight it's hard to keep a heart on guard Against love that's waiting to grow As I'm enclosed in your arms, all my calls for alarm Just roll on like the waves in the sea When you cast me aside, I just hatch down and cry Poor old heartsick me Poor old heartsick me Twice as lonely as a girl ought to be What will the future be For poor old heartsick me You're made part out of me as God made Adam for Eve Just the same as He made you for me What if Adam like you had gone off rambling, too What kind of this old world would this be You don't want to admit that you, too, have been bit By that love god, those tiny teeth Why don't you realize, you just mean paradise Poor old heartsick me Poor old heartsick me Twice as lonely as a girl ought to be What will the future be For poor old heartsick me --- Poor Old Heartsick Me - June Carter Cash
