Surest Love

It’s her surest love, that’s what she’s surest of
He’s home to stay, he’s never gonna go away
Then her sad refrain - he’ll soon be back again

Tell me o surest love, what are those words you say
Your song only yesterday, he’s never gonna go away
Then that railway train - will he ever be back again?

Hear that mellow blow; the horn and the piccolo
She’s lost her surest love, downtown he’s a gigolo
With her he’s left his stain - will he be back again?

She mourns the loss; gone to the Lesbos Isle from Kos
She’ll paint again, from lover’s love she will abstain
She’ll still feel the pain - ever will he, be back again?

The boats faraway have sailed, he’s left no mail
His muse and his minder, over the seas to find her
Remind her of heroes slain - never going there again
