I let a song go out of my heart |
|
It was the sweetest melody |
|
I know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song |
|
Since you and I have drifted apart |
|
Life doesn't mean a thing to me |
|
Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong |
|
Am I too late to make amends? |
|
You know that we were meant to be more than just friends, just friends |
|
I let a song go out of my heart |
|
Believe me, darlin', when I say |
|
I won't know sweet music until you return some day |
|
I let a song go out of my heart |

Believe me, darlin', when I say |
