From the recording Little Flower
Lyrics
Margaret won’t wait by your door
She will tell you she loves you no more
She’ll tell you her heart is untrue
She’ll tell you she loves someone new
Margaret won’t ever look back
She will love you then leave you like that
And then she’ll take her book and write down your name
Turn around and do it all again
Margaret won’t give you her heart
She won’t give you a moment to start
She’ll promise she won’t be unkind
But then scares easy and changes her mind
Margaret was never so cold
But her spirit grew tired we are told
When love abandoned without warning, without cause
Became infectious to poor Margaret’s weary heart
Margaret will live out her days
Running from pain that still stays
She’ll never forgive her first love
She’ll never forget what they’ve done
Margaret can’t see she’s the same
Spreading heartache from where it first came
So then she’ll take her book and write down your name
Turn around and do it all again
