Waking skies at sunrise, every sunset, too,

Seems to be bringing me memories of you.

Here and there, everywhere - scenes that we once knew,

And they all just recall memories of you.

How I wish I could forget those happy yesteryears

That have left a rosary of tears.

 

Your face beams in my dreams, 'spite of all I do.

Everything seems to bring memories of you.

How I wish I could forget those, those  happy yesteryears

That have left a rosary of tears.

Your face beams in my dreams, 'spite of all I do, and

Everything seems to bring memories of you.
