Lyrics for Song: The Way of a Hopeless Love 
Lyrics for Album: Country 1951-1958 [1991]
  
               
  2001>Why did you have to care about me
  And make your plans for just we two
  Well, my heart's now pledged to another
  How can I ever have just you
 
 
  This is the way of a hopeless love
  Hopeless, dear, for you and me
  I cannot hurt the one I'm pledged to
  That's why I never can be free
 
 
  I pledged my life before I met you
  Before you made me love you so
  I cannot break vows that are sacred
  Although it hurts to let you go
 
 
  This is the way of a hopeless love
  Hopeless, dear, for you and me
  I cannot hurt the one I'm pledged to
  That's why I never can be free
 
 
  You must try, dear, to forget me
  I must forget you too, it seems
  But in years to come should we remember
  Let rememberance be just pleasant dreams
 
 
  This is the way of a hopeless love
  Hopeless, dear, for you and me
  I cannot hurt the one I'm pledged to
  That's why I never can be free
