Once I loved . . .

And I gave so much love to this love

It was the world to me!

Once I cried . . .

At the thought I was foolish an proud

And let you say goodbye!

Then, one day . . .

From my infinite sadness you came

And brought me love again!

Now I know . . .

That no matter whatever befalls

Ill never let you go!

I will hold you close . . . make you stay

Because love is the saddest thing

When it goes away . . .

. . . love is the saddest thing

When it goes away . . .

I will hold you close . . . make you stay

Because love is the saddest thing

When it goes away . . .

. . . love is the saddest thing

When it goes away . . .

. . . when it goes away . . .
