HOW WAS I TO KNOW

(Copeman)


As recorded by:
The Rhythm Rascals, dir. Jay Wilbur
V. Gerry Fitzgerald
Recorded 12th December 1935



How was I to know 
Your love for me would grow
How was I to know you’d care
Just one little sign
Would have told me you were mine
And all this unhappiness spare
I’m ever so sorry
I can’t make amends
For now I’m afraid 
We can only be friends
How was I to know
Your heart was aching so
How was I to know you’d care.
