If my soul could talk to you Here's what I'd say I would reminisce every sweet kiss of yesterday To all you young fools I've got a lonesome surprise Time won't turn back And light a candle when love dies When your baby says good-bye That's when you'll find your stairway To the sky in the ashes of dreams you let die You may dream you're close to her
What if you're wrong If she tore apart your poor heart Would you go on Or would you break down In sentimental refrain Go round and round In rhapsody of lasting pain When your baby says good-bye That's when with every beat of your heart Will cry for the ashes of dreams you let die Dreams you let die Dreams you let die
