The Nutmegs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of a girl who left me standing standing in the cold
And since she's been away
I've never had a happy day
I hope and I pray that she'll hear my plea
And maybe someday she'll come back to me
For here in my heart there's a story untold
But after all you've said and done you said we'd be as one
I found I was wrong
But what did you do right from the start
You made of fool of me and then you broke my heart
Well I hope and I pray that she'll hear my plea
And maybe someday she'll come back to me
For here in my heart there's a story untold a story story untold

Well here in my heart there's a story untold
I have a secret and untold story in my heart
Of a girl who left me standing standing in the cold
I was left alone by a girl in the cold weather
And since she's been away
Since she left me
I've never had a happy day
I have been unhappy since the day she left
I hope and I pray that she'll hear my plea
I wish that she would listen to my plea
And maybe someday she'll come back to me
I hope she comes back to me eventually
For here in my heart there's a story untold
I have a secret and untold story in my heart
But after all you've said and done you said we'd be as one
But you told me that we would be together forever
But darling
My beloved
I found I was wrong
I realized I was mistaken
But what did you do right from the start
What did you do correctly from the beginning
You made of fool of me and then you broke my heart
You made me look foolish and then hurt me deeply
Well I hope and I pray that she'll hear my plea
I hope that my plea will be heard
And maybe someday she'll come back to me
Perhaps she will return to me someday
For here in my heart there's a story untold a story story untold
I have a secret and untold story in my heart

Why isn't this group in The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame? TELL ME. I'm a retired College Professor. I have been listening to Vocal Group Harmony since 1953, They deserve to be there. May all The Nutmegs RIP.
@cozycool3505
Rockin' Bill - in sure if they were blonde with blue eyes they'd been there 25 years ago along with about 25 other vocal groups just like them that were prob a little better !
@ellenpearljackson5219
I agree with you
@Jimfromerth
There are so many great groups. Their wouldn’t
be enough room for all of them.
The cadillacs, coasters,moonglows,shirells, vandellas, supremes,
Orioles, drifters,crests, harptones,teenagers, cleftones,the 5 satins,
The ronetts, the delvikings, the chantels, the sky liners, the heartbeats.
I could go on. But you get the idea.
