She comes to haunt me in my sleep
Still unable to sincerely
Give her heart away for keeps
Pretty Girl why?
Pretty girl why not love me?
Pretty girl why?
Pretty girl why?
There she leaves me twice as lonely
As I was but yesterday
Keeping such a hold upon my thoughts
So near yet far away
Pretty Girl why?
Pretty girl why not love me?
Pretty girl why?
Pretty girl why?
The minstrel boy has gone to war
Now burdened with his father's sword
Still she doesn't see how she can give him
Peace amidst the horror
Pretty Girl why?
Pretty girl why not love me?
Pretty girl why?
Pretty girl why?
Like the ghost of someone near She comes to haunt me in my sleep Still unable to sincerely Give her heart away for keeps Pretty Girl why? Pretty girl why not love me? Pretty girl why? Pretty girl why? There she leaves me twice as lonely As I was but yesterday Keeping such a hold upon my thoughts So near yet far away Pretty Girl why? Pretty girl why not love me? Pretty girl why? Pretty girl why? The minstrel boy has gone to war Now burdened with his father's sword Still she doesn't see how she can give him Peace amidst the horror Pretty Girl why? Pretty girl why not love me? Pretty girl why? Pretty girl why? Explain Request ×
