Though I have discovered that you love another

And hardly remember my name

My youth was so crazy, my heart was so lazy

Love never could stand me still
C G Am G
But love's found a shoulder now that I'm older

With plenty of time to kill

Who's never been fooled by love

And I'd be the one you dream of

Here I am standin' in the cold winter rain

If hearts were of wool I'd be warm

I've known some kind hearts and I've touched a few

Though I never claim one for my own
