I Never Did Sing You a Love Song

I Never Did Sing You a Love Song - Olivia Newton-John

I never did sing you a love song

I only sang phrases in time

I never did write you a sonnet

I just laid my cards down in rhymes

Up and down the river so many boats to ride

Yet precious few deliver the goods

That we need to survive

I never spoke falsely or crossly

I never put tears in your eyes

And you never shattered my lonely heart

You never deceived me with lies

And yet somehow I seem to recall

I stood in my sleep for a while

Dreaming of a river man exchanging my life for a smile
