Now that you're gone
I'm alone on the shore
You're not walking with me
So the song of the sea
Isn't sweet anymore
But the soft soft sands
Are the same soft sands
Where we once had such fun
In the warm summer sunshine
There is the rock
That you dared me to climb
Darling, that was the place
Where we shared an embrace
For the very first time
Yes, the rock still stands
On the soft soft sands
And it's more than my heart can bear
Why do I still dream of that storybook ending
When will my heart ever learn
Why do I sit here pretending
That you will, that you will, that you will return
Time and again, since you told me goodbye
I come back to this spot
'Cause it's all that I got to remember you by
And I run my hands through the soft soft sands
Where you once said you'd always care
|
We strolled the lane together
Laughed at the rain together,
Sang love's refrain together
And we'd both pretend it would never end
But one day we cried together
Cast love aside together
You're gone from me,
But in my memory
We always will be together.
Oh darlin' the memory
Of all the happy moments we shared together
Will always remain in my heart
The picnics at the park,
The boat rides on the lake,
The way we danced all night,
The warmth of your kiss,
The way you held me tight
Are all part of a tender love
I'll never, never forget.
You're gone from me
But in my memory,
Darlin', wherever you are,
We'll always be.... together. |
