Lyrics
Love's Last Refrain
By Dave Undis and Fred Butch Burns
VERSE
The other day I made it through
Without crying over you.
Twas the first time since you said
You had better things to do.
When you turned and walked away
I thought I wouldn't last the day,
And all you said was "Life goes on
Through the pleasures and the pain."
CHORUS
Love's last refrain now sung,
You've gone your way, our love now done.
But in the quiet now and then
Do you sometimes long for what might have been?
VERSE
I found a ribbon for your hair
In that drawer we once shared.
Essence of love now bittersweet.
Do you ever have a fleeting thought of me?
The smallest thing can turn my thoughts to you.
Do you sometimes think of me too?
A love we knew would always last,
Now just a memory from the past.
CHORUS
Love's last refrain now sung,
You've gone your way, our love now done.
But in the quiet now and then
Do you sometimes long for what might have been?
And in the quiet now and then
Do you sometimes long for what might have been?
