Just like a fool, I thought that I
Could make her love me by and by
I tried too hard, I gave too much I know
I’d speak of love, she’d turn away
Her heart could find no words to say

With much regret, I had to let her go

I’ll go on loving her
I’ll go on loving her
I’ll go on wanting her
Please tell her this for me

I held the world, here in my grip
Then all at once I felt it slip
And now I’m lost, a helpless child alone
Could I have loved her even more
What am I being punished for
No greater love could I have ever known

I’ll go on loving her
I’ll go on loving her
I’ll go on wanting her
Until eternity

I’ll go on loving her
Forever loving her
I’ll go on wanting her
Please tell her this for me
Tell her this for me
Yes tell her this for me
