While I'm gone (while I'm gone)
You say your love will stay so strong
And you, like the day we meet
Tie a string around your finger (around your finger)
So you won't forget
No no, don't you forget it now
You said (said)
Darlin', you will remember the thrill of my kiss
And the thrill of my lonely arms you'll always miss
So tie (tie) a string around your finger (around your finger)
So you won't forget
Don't you dare forget it
While I'm gone I'll miss you, I know
But my lonely, lonely heart will never, never, never stray
For I'll always keep you for our devoted love
Come what may, my love will never fade away
Mmmm, you know (you know)
It won't be easy to always stay true
No, it's no easy thing to do
But remember how much, how much I love you (round your finger)
And tie a string around your finger (tie a string)
Please don't forget me (round your finger)
Just tie a string around your fïnger
