LYRICS

I don't want my heart to be broken

'Cause it's the only one I've got

So, darling, please, be careful

You know I care a lot

Darling, please, don't break my heart

I beg of you

I don't want no tears a-falling

You know I hate to cry

But that's what's bound to happen

If you only say goodbye

Darling, please, don't say goodbye

I beg of you

Hold my hand and promise

That you'll always love me true

Make me know you'll love me

The same way I love you, little girl

You got me at your mercy

Now that I'm in love with you

So, please, don't take advantage

'Cause you know my love is true

Darling, please, please, love me too

I beg of you

Hold my hand and promise

That you'll always love me true

Make me know you'll love me

The same way I love you, little girl

You got me at your mercy

Now that I'm in love with you

So, please, don't take advantage

'Cause you know my love is true

Darling, please, please, love me too

I beg of you

Darling, please, please, love me too

I beg of you

Darling, please, please, love me too

I beg of you
