They've passed me by, many years,

And i did turn well away.

To give and lose love

And still no word had i to say,

Not to anyone.



Now i see

How i could speak honestly.

But when you're gone

Perhaps you'll long to be free.



I do know

When it is

That i must go.



For you can think of love

Wandering far from you,

Or of a warm heart

Wishing well and loving you.



I do believe

The way is

To live.



I have loved many

And you have, too.

But with the strength of the young

This love has memories,

They are worth to be sung.
