Withered on the Vine

I once had a true love\nI thought it would last\nHow could I know\nThat it would go so fast\nA love like a holiday\nTender and kind\nAnd I let it whither on the vine\nWhere did it run to\nWhere did it go\nHow could I let it\nSlip through my fingers so\nFor it was a real love\nAnd rare and fine\nAnd I let it whither on the vine\nBut the hardest pill\nTo swallow is still\nNot the reason for your leaving\nBut the way I let it happen\nNow I’m counting the cost\nOf the loss of what was once mine\nThat I let whither on the vine\nI once had a true love\nI thought it would last\nHow could I know\nThat it would go so fast\nA love like a holiday\nTender and kind\nAnd I let it whither on the vine
