Once I Had A Sweetheart Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none 

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none. 

He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me 

He's gone and leave me to sorrow and mourn. 

Last night in deep slumber I dreamed I did see 

Last night in deep slumber I dreamed I did see 

My own true love came smiling to me 

My own true love came smiling to me. 

And when I awakened I found it not so 

And when I awakened I found it not so. 

My heart like some fountain with tears overflow 

My heart like some fountain with tears overflow. 

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none 

Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none. 

He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me 

He's gone and leave me to sorrow and mourn.
