Through the Morning, Through the Night Lyrics

Believe me when I tell you I will try to understand Believe me when I tell you I could never kill a man But to know that another man’s holding you tight Hurts me, little darling, through the morning, through the night
The bond has been broken, the promise you gave The words that were spoken, I cannot be your slave But to know that the trust you had in me is gone Hurts me, little darling, through the night time, through the dawn
I dreamed just last night you were there by my side Your sweet loving tenderness easing my pride But then I awoke, dear, and found you not there It was just my old memory of how much I care
Believe me when I tell you I will try to understand Believe me when I tell you I could never kill a man But to know that another man’s holding you tight Hurts me, little darling, through the morning, through the night
