[00:19.60]She cuts a tiny figure at
[00:24.04]The picture-house front door
[00:27.85]He said they'd meet at seven
[00:30.85]But it's been an hour or more
[00:35.85]So she shuns the knowning glances of
[00:40.41]The couples passing by
[00:45.53]Bites her lip and holds down hard
[00:48.85]So they won't see her cry
[00:53.87]From twilight to starlight
[00:58.11]She waited on into the night
[01:02.44]'Till the clock-tower chimes out ten
[01:05.88]She knows he's let her down again
[01:10.08]And she vows this is the last time
[01:14.45]As the tears begins to fall
[01:19.64]If this is love it's better she had
[01:23.77]Never loved at all
[01:29.52]How high the moon
[01:34.58]How sweet the tune
[01:38.83]How big the fool that feel too soon
[01:47.20]How deep the pain first love imparts
[01:55.95]How could you know
[02:00.14]How fragile the heart
[02:06.39]Her eyes are red there's nothing said
[02:10.39]She goes off to school
[02:15.02]Quiet sadness follows her
[02:18.39]That breaks my heart in two
[02:23.34]I can't advise or patronise
[02:26.71]As she foregoes these passage rights
[02:31.66]Or tell her memory
[02:33.34]Knows the way she feels
[02:40.47]For when you learn the hard way
[02:44.86]Second time you're shy
[02:48.96]To cover up that sleep worn heart
[02:52.53]The next time she won't cry
[02:59.34]How high the moon
[03:04.52]How sweet the tune
[03:08.77]How big the fool that feel too soon
[03:17.28]How deep the pain first love imparts
[03:25.91]How could you know
[03:30.15]How fragile the heart
[03:36.77]How high the moon
[03:41.90]How sweet the tune
[03:46.46]How big the fool that feel too soon
[03:54.84]How deep the pain first love imparts
[04:03.40]How could you know
[04:07.58]How fragile the heart
