Once I Loved

Once, once I loved
And I gave so much love to this world it was the world to me
Once I cried
At the thought I was foolish and proud and let you say goodbye
And then one day

From my infinite sadness you came and brought me love again
Now, now I know
That no matter what ever befalls I'll never let you go
I will hold you close, make you stay
Because love is the saddest thing when it goes away

Because love is the saddest thing

Now I know
That no matter what ever befalls I'll never let you go
I will hold you close, make you stay
Because love is the saddest thing when it goes away
Because love is the saddest thing
