I often wonder why he came to me
Brought such a flame to me
Then let it die
And if another love should find my heart
It will remind my heart of your goodbye
With every new love
You’ll come back to me
In other eyes it’s you I see
If I love again
Though it’s someone new
If I love again
It will still be you
In someone else’s firm embrace
I close my eyes but see your face
If I love again
I’ll find another charms
But I’ll make believe

You are in my arms
And though my lips whisper “love me!”
My heart will not be true
I’ll be loving you
Every time I love again…
