IT NEVER CAN BE
(Cindy Walker)


Cindy Walker - 1942





Outside the night winds are sobbin'
Those sad mournful melodies
They're cooing the last words you told me
Those last words, "It never can be"

Within my heart there is sorrow
And only misery
You've left me no hope for tomorrow
Since you said, "It never can be"

You'll never know, my darlin'
What you have done to me
My heart, like my dreams, now is broken
Since you said, "It never can be"

(Instrumental Break)

You'll never know, my darlin'
What you have done to me
My heart, like my dreams, now is broken
Since you said, "It never can be"
