Songtexte Shallow - My Darling Clementine

You told me the ocean was mine to keep
You said that you'd call down the moon
But love is a promise too wide and deep
We were shallow and fell in too soon
I told you that I'd try to do my best
To honour the vow that me made
But I wore the air of a single man
And never strayed far from the shade
She sang him 'The Roses of Picardy'
While he sang 'The Workingman's Blues'
I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry I failed
It's not like I set out to lose
Two shells washed up on the shore
A couple who swam out too far
