You Played Love On The Strings Lyrics

Last night by my window so lonely

As I mentioned your name in my prayers

It seemed I could hear your voice calling

From far out on that ocean of stars.

You whispered my name and I saw you

Descending to me from on high

I had fallen asleep and was dreaming

Then awoke, hung my troubled head and cried.

Chorus:

You played love on the strings of my heart dear

When you whispered "I love only you, just you"

But you broke ev'ry promise little darling

Now the strings on my heart are broken too.

Oh, why did you have to deceive me

Oh, why did you prove so untrue, I'm blue

Ev'ry string on my heart you have broken

And darling my heart is broken too.

Then I dreamed of a golden tomorrow

Of a life filled with treasures for you, just you

As the moon kissed the gold in your curls dear

You told me you'd always be true.

But the dawn broke your vows little darling

I know I can never have you, we're thru'

For that old rising sun then awoke me

So weary in my mind and still blue.

Chorus:

You played love on the strings of my heart dear

When you whispered "I love only you, just you"

But you broke ev'ry promise little darling

Now the strings on my heart are broken too...
