Didn't I like to hold you in my hand?
I was doing you no harm!
I made you understand:
All my life I've been that way...
It happened long ago.
Didn't I pray to love you through the night?
I was dreaming wide awake
In the early morning light;
Shine on me... A sorry state:
My heart has told me so!
And the storm clouds gather overhead:
No shelter we can share!
Lie down on my flower bed.
I got no control;
I would sell my soul
To be there!
So, forever do or die:
We just belong.
Kiss hello... No, wave goodbye!
And the heat is stronger.
From the moment when we touched,
No wind can hold me;
Came from loving you too much!
And the nights are longer...
[Chorus:]
Make it like a memory!
Make it like a dream unreal!
Make it like we never met,
But I can't forget
Just how I feel.
Make it like a memory!
Take away the sound and the sight!
There'll never be another love
With the power of
You and I...!
[Instrumental]
Maybe I'm wrong to hold you in my hand;
I believed you when you lied!
I tried to understand!
All my life, I've been that way...
It happened long ago.
[Chorus:]
Make it like a memory!
Make it like a dream unreal!
Make it like we never met,
But I can't forget
Just how I feel.
Make it like a memory!
Take away the sound and the sight!
There'll never be another love
With the power of
You and I...!
[Instrumental]
