Lyrics
Why Did I Lose You
Lyrics By
Felice Kaye-Cooper
Why did I lose you?
The stars have vanished
The light has ceased to
Shine in my heart.
I can not laugh again,
And tears have followed.
The sadness in my soul
Deepens every passing day
If you come back to me,
The sun will shine forever.
Warming my days again
And filling all my dreams
No one can take your place
Or the ?memories? of a lifetime
Even though you had to
Go away your love will always stay.
(Second Chorus)
But if you come back,
My tears will turn to laughter.
Only joy and happiness
To know you are so near.
Nothing can take away
The ?memories? of a lifetime
Even though you had to go away
Your love will always stay.
Interlude
*(The orchestra plays to Signa Sign second chorus)
And if you come back
The world is mine forever
Gone the years of loneliness
Be-cause you are so near.
Nothing can take away
The ?memories? of a lifetime
Even though you had to go away
Your love will always stay.
(To Coda)
Why did I lose you?
The stars have vanished.
The light has ceased to
Shine in - to my heart.
I can not laugh again
And tears have followed.
Only shadows fill my days,
Since you have gone away
