NEVER AGAIN - an old style ballad lyric

(With feeling)

I shan't fall in love again

You won't find me like other men....

Foolish fancies from the start

Careless with this caring heart

 

I'll never smile again and say

I'm yours forever come what may

A stronger man is what I'll be

There'll be a wiser change in me

 

Love may lead other men on a merry dance

But I'll tell you now that there's just no chance

I'll be taking any new step

I've had my fill of that old two-step

I'm making do without romance

 

You won't see me in love again

No!  Not even now and then

OK - you may have caught me

But oh how well you taught me -

Love was meant for other men.

Thanks for the "likes!". I'm now having fun putting the words to
a tune for a planned recording. Show songs have always found
a place with me and I got the inspiration for this ballad lyric from
that genre of words and music and have now made some slight amendments "to
suit" the vocal delivery,
