[Verse 1]
It seems years and years ago that
People saw the sun
We would sleep on beaches
[?]
[Verse 2]
Now must I go sleep alone
Between clean cold sheets
But when I was with you we slept wrapped up
In that haunting song you sang
[Chorus]
Of course, you must know that it did all end
How then to recall what we really were?
Of course, you must know that it did all end
Nothing that perfect or simple ever lasts for long
[Bridge]
That haunting song you sang about
Picking roses and dropping them in the beloved's lap
As she dreamed
The translation clumsy
Maybe it was that other song you sang about
The beautiful dress that gets torn
[Chorus]
Of course, you must know that it did all end
How then to recall what we really were?
Of course, you must know that it did all end
Nothing that perfect or simple ever lasts for long
