Should you leave,
Take the memories with you,
For they will haunt me
Till my dying day.
Should you leave,
Take the nights of passion and love,
For they will ruin
Every woman after you.
Should you leave,
Take the days of joyous laughter,
For they will sadden me
Beyond imagination.
Should you leave,
Take the kisses and the soft caresses,
For there will be no more of that,
None would ever match yours.
Should you leave,
Take the words and sweet nothings,
For they will only fool me,
into false hope for your return.
Should you leave,
Take the music of our dance,
For they will tear at my soul
And drive me insane.
Should you leave,
Take the warmth of your embrace,
For they will drain me
And turn my flesh cold.
Should you leave,
Take the memories with you,
For no one could ever compare.
For no one could ever compare.
