Such a Woman

I haven't got a hope in my pocket.
I haven't got a dream to my name.
But people, people, let me tell you,
I am lucky just the same.

     I got a memory, I got a memory,
     Of a woman, Such a woman,
     God only made one.
     And when I held her, when I held her,
     Well I knew I held a sun.

     'Cause she warmed me,
     Yes, she warmed me, and lighted my way.
     And when she left me,
     That was the end of my day.

I haven't got a woman to hold to.
I haven't had a love for so long.
But people, people, you've got to believe me,
I know I can get along.

     I've got a memory, I've got a memory,
     Of a woman, such a woman,
     God only made one.
     And when I held her, when I held her,
     I knew I held a sun.

     'Cause she warmed me,
     Yes she warmed me, and lighted my way,
     And when she left me,
     That was the end of my day.
