audra mcdonald - i had myself a true love lyrics

i had myself a true love
a true love who was something to see
i had myself a true love
at least that’s what i kept on telling me
the first thing in the morning
i still try to think of a way
to be with him some part of the evening
and that’s the way i live through the day
“she had herself a true love
but now he’s gone and left her for good”
the lord knows i done heard those backyard whispers
going ’round the neighborhood

there maybe a lot of things i miss
a lot of things i don’t know
but i do know this:
now i ain’t got no love
and once upon a time i had a true love

in the evening, by the doorway
while i stand there and wait for his coming
with the house swept and the clothes hung
and a pot on the stove there a-hummin’
where is he while i watch the rising moon?
with that girl in that d-mn old saloon?
no, that ain’t the way that it used to be
no, and everybody keeps telling me

there may be a lot of things i miss
a lot of things i don’t know
but i do know this:
now i ain’t got no love
and once upon a time i had a true love
