I don't want my heart to be broken 
Cause it's the only one I've got 
So darling please be careful 
You know I care a lot 
Darling please don't break my heart 
I beg of you 

I don't want no tears a-falling 
You know I hate to cry 
But that's what's bound to happen 
I you only say goodbye 
Darling please don't say goodbye 
I beg of you 

**Hold my hand and promise 
  That you'll always love me true 
  Make me know you'll love me 
  The same way I love you little girl 

  You got me at your mercy 
  Now that I'm in love with you 
  So please don't take advantage 
  Cause you know my love is true 
  Darling please please love me too 
  I beg of you
