Many words you've given me, br many hopes and dreams. br Your 'Love like a forgotten scent br that brings a memory, ' br This you said would never fade, br With these words my life was made. br br You said I showed you incomplete br and by doing so br I brought about a change in you. br How I do not know, br But Love you said would never fade, br With this love my life was made. br br Now there is no moon or night sky br or stars that shine above br to reflect the song within my heart, br the song you said you loved. br I prayed that song would never fade, br and with that prayer my life was made. br br And now what am I to do br when everything I have known, br Your words, your love, and love's song br away with joy have flown. br I'd hoped that joy would never fade, br and on that hope my life was made. br br But hope brings hurt and lonliness, br this you said to me. br I say hope brings love and faith br and sings life's melody. br For without hope my love would fade, br so on that hope my life is made. br br For my dear life, I will hold on. br It will be tough I know. br The one thing that I ask of you, br don't ask me to let go. br For without the hope of you I fall, br Without you, Life is not life at all.
