Though you treat me unkind Drove me out of my mind You never thought I'd leave you When I did you sat and cried A little love goes a long long way You couldn't be nice, could you All those nasty things you said And you could never count The foolish tears I've shed A little love goes a long long way How do you think I felt? I'd given you my heart It wasn't enough for you You tore it apart You couldn't remember The one golden rule A little love goes a long long way Like a fool I come to you Thinking things would work our right But it was really hopeless You hurt me day and night A little love goes a long long way How do you think I felt? I'd given you my heart It wasn't enough for you You tore it apart You couldn't remember The one golden rule A little love goes a long long way
