My Used to Be Darling

Kitty Wells · Queen of Country Music [Bear Family (Germany)] [1994]

(Vic McAlpin - Billy Wallace)



I'm almost ashamed now for people to know

That you are the one I once worshipped so

For they didn't know you as you were then

My used to be darling, I can't trust you again.



My used to be darling once loving and sweet

Today you're no more than a stranger to me

Too far you drifted in wild reckless fun

My used to be darling just look what you've done.



--- Instrumental ---



As I see you tonight in the dim lights of shame

I remember how proudly I once spoke your name

As you touched your lips to that bottle of wine

I remember the thrills when they used to touch mine.



My used to be darling once loving and sweet

Today you're no more than a stranger to me

Too far you drifted in wild reckless fun

My used to be darling just look what you've done...
