Lyrics

Heartless, how can you be so heartless to me?
I thought you car’d, but now I can see
Your love is all pretending
Your eyes are smiling, but you’re heartless
And when I hold you close in my arms
I’m back again, a slave to your charms
My love’s unending. I’m mad about you
My life is lost without you
You’ve set my blood on fire
With flaming desire
Your lips may taunt me, but still your kisses haunt me
I want you so to want me
I’ve fallen ‘neath the spell you’ve cast
You’re heartless! but all the same I know I will find
If I keep loving, you’ll change your mind
And you’ll be mine at last
