Three Guesses
(Bob Nolan)
You gave me just three guesses
And my heart confesses
That I know not what I have done
That you should leave me here so lonely
With three guesses only.
I only needed one.
Somebody new stole your heart from my heart
But time changes all, that is true,
For I saw you cry alone here last night.
The tables have turned on you.
So, darling, now whose heart’s confessing?
And, if you’re still guessing,
I’ll give you three guesses, too.
Somebody new takes your place in my heart
And so goes the turn of the tide
And somebody new steals someone from you.
Now you’ll be the one who’ll cry.
So, darling, now whose heart’s confessing
And, if you’re still guessing,
I’ll give you three guesses, too.
