Once I Loved lyrics

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 an' 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 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 . .

. . . love is the saddest thing
When it goes away . .

Instrumental break

I will hold you close . . . make you stay
Because love is the saddest thing
When it goes away . .
. . . love is the saddest thing
When it goes away . .

. . . when it goes away . .
