The sweetest songs belong to lovers in the gloaming

The sweetest days are the days that used to be

The saddest words I ever heard were words of parting

When you said, "Sweetheart, remember me"

Remember me when the candle lights are gleaming

Remember me at the close of a long long day

It would be so sweet when all alone I'm dreaming

Just to know you still remember me

You told me once that, "You were mine alone forever

And I was yours till the end of eternity"

But all our vows are broken now and we will never

Be the same except in memory

A brighter face may take my place when we're apart dear

A sweeter smile and a love more bold and free

But in the end fair weather friends may break your heart dear

If they do, sweetheart, remember me

Remember me when the candle lights

Just to know you still remember me
