Lyrics
You told me once you were mine, alone, forever
An’ I was yours till the end of eternity
But all those vows are broken now an’ I will never
Be the same except in memoryRemember me when the candle lights are gleamin’
Remember me at the close of a long, long day
An’ it would be so sweet when all alone, I’m dreamin’
Just to know you still remember meA brighter face may take my place when we’re apart, dear:
Another love, with a heart more bold and free
But in the end, fair weather friends may break your heart, dear
An’ if they do, sweetheart, remember meRemember me when the candle lights are gleamin’
Remember me at the close of a long, long day
An’ it would be so sweet when all alone, I’m dreamin’
Just to know you still remember meJust to know you still remember me
