When you're alone who cares for starlit skies?

When you're alone the magic moonlight dies at break of dawn

There is no sunrise when your lover has gone

 

What lonely hours the ev'ning shadows bring

What lonely hours with mem'ries lingering like faded flow'rs

Life can't mean anything when your lover has gone

 

<instrumental>

 

Like faded flowers, life can't mean anything when your lover has gone
