Lyrics Harry Belafonte – Don’t Ever Love Me
Text:
While in that gay tropic isle
I first saw that maiden smile
Though I had failed in the past
I said, «This is true love at last»
That our love never could be
Destiny, oh, when will I see the day?
Hopelessly, I’ve wandered so long this way
«This could never be», she said pleadingly
Don’t ever love me, I’m just fancy-free
«This could never be», she said pleadingly
Don’t ever love me
My love was motion and grace
The moonlight soft on her face
I held her close in my arms
My heart was quick to her charms
But then I saw in her glance
It was just an evening’s romance
Destiny, oh, when will I see the day?
Hopelessly, I’ve wandered so long this way
«This could never be», she said pleadingly
Don’t ever love me, I’m just fancy-free
«This could never be», she said pleadingly
Don’t ever love me
«This could never be» she said pleadingly
Don’t ever love me
