Love Lament - Abbey Lincoln
Written by:R.B. Lynch
Love
I believed your illusions
Your kiss and your eyes
I thought they were mine
But love of my dreams
You betrayed me
You said I was yours
And I felt secure
But now you have gone
And I've only this song
To sing
Sigh
Shout love's cry
Life does not care
You have left me
Alone without love or you
The love that we shared
Now has passed
Should I care
To live
Love you me oh
Life does not care
You have left me
Alone without love or you
