I was alone again, so what to do,

A thought upon my mind,

They came and then they went,

Yeah, good girls are hard to find,

Left with memories that I grieve,

They hit my heart like rain storms,

And then they had to leave,

False pretending paper dolls,

Diamonds made of glass,

Solid golden sweethearts,

Who were really made of brass,

My heart had seen a thousand dreams,

Casting shadows in my mind,

Exploding like magic fairy dust,

And I guess it sent me blind,

And then you came along,

Yeah honey this song is for just for you,

My love, my life, my darling wife,

Whose heart I know is true,

And every day I am reminded,

When I see your ring upon my hand,

For now and always, I love Mary Ann.
