The dream of love is over, today we said goodbye,
D A E E7
we parted not in anger though tears came in her eyes.
A D A
'Twas just as fate decreed, dear, that we should never wed,
D A E A
yet in her heart she loved me, she married wealth instead.
A E
One little word could've changed my future life,
E7 A
one little word could've made her my wife.
D A
Too late, too late, now my fondest hopes are dead,
E E7 A
one little word, that word was never said.

Since schooldays we had been sweethearts,
E A
she was her father's pride,
D A E E7
her folks lived in a mansion, our cottage by its side.
A D A
Though years have brought their changes, the same old love tale told,
D A E A
she wed to please her parents a man of wealth and gold.
A E
One little word could've changed my future life,
E7 A
one little word could've made her my wife.
D A
Too late, too late, now my fondest hopes are dead,
E E7 A
one little word, that word was never said.
