Once, once I loved
And I gave so much love to this love
You were the world to me
Once I cried
At the thought I was foolish and proud
And let you say goodbye

And then one day
From my infinite sadness you came
And brought me love again
Now I know
That no matter what ever 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
