A broken heart is why
I sing this song to you
So you and all the world would know
Why i have let you go

They say i'm robbin the cradle, little darlin
Because i've fallen in love with you
They say i'm robbin the cradle, little darlin
Is it strange for true love to be so young

Well, everybody says that you've got blue eyes
But your eyes are really brown like mine
Well, everybody says that you're unhappy
But, with me, you really look so fine

They say i'm robbin the cradle, little darlin
Because i've fallen in love with you
They say i'm robbin the cradle, little darlin
Is it strange for true love to be so young

Well, they all say that i'm outta line
'cause i want to make you mine
But what very few people know
That we planned everything just so

They say i'm robbin the cradle, little darlin
Because i've fallen in love with you
They say i'm robbin the cradle, little darlin
Is it strange for true love to be so young
Is it strange for true love to be so young
