Oh, childish love, that I could not hold I thought your love, was a light of gold But you could write, a few short lines To tell your love, ten thousand times You left me in this world alone Your childish love, I could not win You tore apart our little home A childish love will always end When you have wed, another man I hope he'll give his life to you I'll hope he'll always treat you kind Just like I did when you were mine I never hope to wed again I'll travel down life's path alone A second love would be in vain For I will love you on and on There's just one thing, that I have not told Your picture's framed in a ring of gold I'll always wear it on my hand A diamond sealed in golden band
