Billy Kemp - Another Life to Live

They stood on a porch one evening
By the light of the moon up above
He'd given his heart to her surely
But she was no longer in love

He was standing beside her shadow
When she spoke those words of surprise
She never intended to hurt him
Never meant to be unkind

My dear I've fallen for another
Can you find it in your heart to forgive
I no longer wish to be your lover
My hope is that you'll find another
Another life to live

She told him farewell in the summer
When the whippoorwill makes a lonesome tone
And just like that bird he is crying
Each night he sits all alone

And wonders if he'll ever love another
Another's heart he can hold forever more
And worries if he does love another
Will she say those words he's heard before
