Take away, the scent of flowers
Cover up, the sky of blue
Close my ears to tender love songs
They remind me too much of youHide young lovers warm embraces
Keep stars and moonlight from my view
Let me forget, there are such places
They remind me too much of youMust I evermore be haunted?
Day after day, my whole life through
By the memory of each moment
That I spent alone with youIf these lovely things dont hurt you
Our love just wasnt meant to be
But please come back to me, my darling
If they remind you, too much of me
