Kathy Mattea - Remember Me (When Candle Lights are Gleaming) lyrics

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
