I FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY
(Fritz Fryer)


The Four Pennies - 1964



I gave my heart to you, the least that I could do
When you told me that your love for me was really true
I thought this love would be happiness for you and me
But I found out the hard way you'd bring this misery

Why did you break my heart runnin' around
Why d'you destroy all the joy that I've found
Why do you torment me when you know
That I never wanted to let you go

Every time that I see you you're out with someone new
You don't know what I go through seeing someone else with you
Wish I could find the way to bring you back someday
But I know that you'd always want to run away

Why did you break my heart runnin' around
Why d'you destroy all the joy that I've found
Why do you torment me when you know
That I never wanted to let you go

I gave my heart to you, the least that I could do
When you told me that your love for me was really true
I thought this love would be happiness for you and me
But I found out the hard way you'd bring this misery
