now at liberty
little white love, your way you%27ve taken;
now i am left alone, alone.
little white love, my heart%27s forsaken.
[whom shall i get by telephone?]
well do i know there%27s no returning;
once you go out, it%27s done, it%27s done.
all of my days are gray with yearning.
[nevertheless, a girl needs fun.]
little white love, perplexed and weary,
sadly your banner fluttered down.
sullen the days, and dreary, dreary.
[which of the boys is still in town?]
radiant and sure, you came a-flying;
puzzled, you left on lagging feet.
slow in my breast, my heart is dying.
[nevertheless, a girl must eat.]
little white love, i hailed you gladly;
now i must wave you out of sight.
ah, but you used me badly, badly.
[who%27d like to take me out tonight?]
all of the blundering words i%27ve spoken,
little white love, forgive, forgive.
once you went out, my heart fell, broken.
[nevertheless, a girl must live.]
