Can anyone help me locate the lyrics to an old (Lefty Frizzel song, I think) that was recorded in the 1950's.

The song goes: "Once I thought I loved just you and I thought you loved me too" -------------------------------- ----etc. the last line ends: "...look what thoughts will do".

Thanks, Tom

LOOK WHAT THOUGHTS WILL DO
(Lefty Frizzell, Jim Beck, Dub Dickerson, 1950)

Once I thought I loved just you
And I thought you loved me too,
But just look what thoughts will do
For today you say we're through.

Now another wears the crown
And you think that you have found
Just what makes your world go 'round.
Watch those thoughts. They'll get you down.

If within your future years
Your new love should bring you tears,
Then you'll think of me, I'm sure,
But those thoughts won't help you, dear.

Thought I'd build a home for two,
Just a home for me and you.
Thought we'd have some kiddies too,
But just look what thoughts will do.

Now I know just how you feel,
That your love was never real.
Guess to you I don't appeal,
So we'll just forget the deal.

So goodbye and here's to you,
And I'm happy through and through.
Yes, you thought that I'd be blue,
But just look what thoughts will do.
