In the stillness of the dawn
|
Our love is dead and gone
|
The sunrise warms my heart
|
With memories of you
|
It's the sweetest thing--remembering
|
|
There's a picture in the hall
|
That I'm leaving on the wall
|
'Cause there's a look in your eyes
|
That always made me fall apart
|
It's the sweetest thing--remembering
|
When I close my eyes to cry
|
I can't help but feel a smile
|
'Cause I think of you and I forget
|
It hurt to say goodbye
|
|
But after all we've been through
|
It's amazing to me
|
The sweetest thing's remembering
|
Oh the sweetest thing--remembering
|
|
We wanted love to last forever
|
And the good Lord knows we tried
|
But when the rain came pouring down
|
There was no place left to hide
|
|
But after all we've been through
|
It's amazing to me
|
The sweetest thing's remembering
|
Oh the sweetest thing--remembering
|
|
It's the sweetest thing--remembering
|
