And She Sang - The Puppini Sisters

There was a girl who thought the world

Was filled with gold and pearls

She smiled with the bright eyes

Of those who trust in life

She had been taught she should believe

In all that’s good and fair

And and the end of each day

She sat contented in her chair

And she sang;

lalalalalala

He was the type who thought he had a right

To everything he liked

He had an easy air, was confident

And pleasing to the eye

They met by chance at a caf© He thought that she looked fine

And as they kissed she felt the bliss

Of love for the first time

And she sang;

lalalalalala

She gave herself without reserve

With eagerness and joy

He took her with indifference

Then cast her off like a broken toy

There was a girl who thought the world

Was filled with gold and pearls

She smiled with hazy eyes

And lips that barely curled

She had been taught she should believe

And so her life went on

And through the years she still could hear

The echo of her song

Lalalalalala
