Once, once I loved,
And I gave so much love to this love,
You were the world to me.
Once I cried
At the thought I was foolish and proud
And let you say goodbye;
And then one day,
From my infinite sadness you came
And brought me love again;
Now I know
That no matter whatever befalls,
I'll never let you go,
I will hold you close,
Make you satay,
Because love is the saddest thing
When it goes away,
Loveis the saddest thing
When it goes away.
