I Really Loved Harold lyrics

by

Tom Waits


They told me when I was little
I'd go to heaven if I was good
Now I'm a long way from little
'Cause I tried to find heaven
'Cause I thought that I could
I thought that I could

And I thought I loved Harold
And I really loved John
I really loved Alfie
I almost loved Tom
I loved them so easy
And I loved them so free
Now I don't think that heaven
Will wanna love me

Hallo, song of the willow
The dreams under my pillow
Turned to tears that I cried
Beauty and love are our riddle
Never to answer, but always to try
And, boy, did I try

And I tried with Harold
And I tried with John
I tried with Alfie
And almost with Tom
I left myself open
For the whole world to see
Now I don't think that heaven
Will wanna love me
So I said goodbye to Harold
And goodbye to John
Goodbye to Alfie
And goodbye to Tom
I loved them so easy
And I loved them so free
Now I don't think that heaven
Will wanna love me

Oh say, can you see?
By the dawn's early light
No light will shine me
