Lyrics
With you I owned the earth
With you I ruled creation
No you, and what’s it worth?
It’s just an imitation
Refrain:
Your sweet expression
The smile you gave me
The way you looked when we met
It’s easy to remember
But so hard to forget
I hear you whisper
“I’ll always love you”
I know it’s over and yet
It’s easy to remember
But so hard to forget
So I must dream
To have your hand caress me
Fingers press me tight.
I’d rather dream
Than have the lonely feeling
Stealing through the night
Each little moment is clear before me
And though it brings me regret
It’s easy to remember
And so hard to forget
