Prime Of Our Love

I have rocked you to sleep like a baby

Stood beneath you and lifted you up

I have given you comfort and safety

Now you've gone in the prime of our love

I have cradled your head on my pillow

Quenched your thirst from my sweet loving cup

I have bowed to your needs like a willow

Now you've gone in the prime of our love



Oh, the days are slow in their passing

And the nights are so dreadfully dull

And the question my heart keeps on asking

Why'd you leave in the prime of our love?



I have cradled your head on my pillow

Quenched your thirst from my sweet loving cup

I have bowed to your needs like a willow

Now you've gone in the prime of our love



In the prime of our love you've forsaken

Our bright hopes and just left them to fade

And the heart that was yours for the breaking

Lies in pieces to wither away



I have cradled your head on my pillow

Quenched your thirst from my sweet loving cup

I have bowed to your needs like a willow

Now you've gone in the prime of our love



In the prime of our love you've forsaken

Our bright hopes and just left them to fade

And the heart that was yours for the breaking

Lies in pieces to wither away

Lies in pieces as cold as the clay
