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 those vows are broken now, and we will never
Be the same except in memory
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
[Fiddle bridge]
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 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
Just to know you still remember me
