Once I loved
And I gave so much love to this love
It was the world to me
Once I cried
At the thought I was foolish and proud
And let you say goodbye
Then one day
From my infinite saddness you came
And brought me love again
Now I know
That no matter whatever befalls
I'll never let you go
I will hold you close
Make you stay?
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
And I gave so much love to this love
It was the world to me
Once I cried
At the thought I was foolish and proud
And let you say goodbye
Then one day
From my infinite saddness you came
And brought me love again
Now I know
That no matter whatever befalls
I'll never let you go
I will hold you close
Make you stay?
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
