So faithfully you promised me we'd marry in the spring
A year has passed and now at last I see through everything
Just like a fool I let you rule this heart inside of me

Now you don't care how many years I'll spend in misery
Girls in disgrace must surely face the gossips of the town
And everytime she's passing by they greet her with a frown
You constantly reveal to me that you could never be
The kind of man to understand girls in disgrace like me

So patiently I try to see and understand your game
I'd even wait night after night you seldom ever came
I know you'll say I'm all to blame I know you just can't see
How I could think so much of you and never think of me
Girls in disgrace must surely face...
