(Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo, oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo)
(Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo, oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo)
Her eyes were softer than the
night, her lips were honey and wine
And oh I love her more than
life, I worship this love of mine.
(Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo, oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo)
(Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo, oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo)
I worshipped her so blindly till
I was told one day,
For love of gold, my true love
sold, sold her heart away.
(Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo, oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo)
(Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo, oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo)
The love that I had idolized has
sold her heart away,
Too late, too late, I realized
my idol had feet of clay.
(Oo oo oo oo oo oo, ee)
