Once I loved And I gave so much love To this love It was the world to me Once I cried After though I was foolish And 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 bafalls I'll never let you go I will hold you close Night and day Because 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 Because love is the saddest thing When it goes away
