Once, I loved
And I gave so much love to this love
It was the world to me
Once, I cried
At the thought that was foolish and proud
And let you say goodbye
Then one day, from my infinite sadness
You came and brought me love again
Now I know, that no matter whatever befalls
I'll never let you go
I will hold you close
Night and day
Because love is the saddest thing
When it goes away
I will hold you close
Make you stay
Because love is the saddest thing
When it goes away
Because love is the saddest thing
When it goes away
Goes away
