If I should lose you, the stars would fall from the sky

If I should lose you, leaves would wither and die

The birds in May-time - they'd sing a mournful refrain

And I would wander around - hating the sound of rain

With you beside me, the rose would bloom in the snow

With you beside me, no winds of winter would blow

I gave you my love - and I was living a dream

But living would seem - in vain if I

(Hating the rain - if I)

(All is in vain if I)

If I ever lost you
