(I Had Myself A) True Love — текст песни (Barbra Streisand)

I had myself a true love,
a true love that was somethin` too see.
I had myself a true love, At least that`s what I kept on tellin` me.
The first thing in the morning, I still try to think of a way,
to be with him some part of the evenin`,
and that`s the way i live through the day.
She had herself a true love, and now he`s gone and left for good.
The lord knows I done heard those backyard whispers goin roun`
the neighborhood.
There may be alot of things i miss,
a lot of things i don`t know,
but i do know this, Now i ain`t got no love,
and once upon a time i had a true love.

In the evenin, by the doorway, while i stand there and wait for his coming
with the house swept, and the clothes hung,
and the pot on the stove there a hummin`,
where is he while i watch the risen moon.
With that gal in that damn ole saloon.
No that ain`t the way that it used to be
No and everybody keeps tellin me,
there may be alot of things i miss, I lot of things i don`t know
but i do know this.
Now i ain`t got no love, but once upon a time i had a true love
