My Melancholy Baby

Why oh why does this young man cry
Who has broken his fragile heart
The girl of his dreams so it seems
Had never loved him from the start

She left him there sad in despair
Only to drown in salty tears
Full of folly and melancholy
As it went on for years and years

Then one day in the month of May
There came a knocking at his door
As if carved in wood there she stood
Crying sorry for the times before

Take me back as her voice would crack
Please forgive my prior disgrace
Now turning red he then shook his head
And slammed the door right in her face
