Too Beautiful to Last

The days of autumn splendor
Those moments warm and tender
Was it too beautiful to last?
The love we shared together
The dreams we dared together
Was it too beautiful to last?

Walking hand in hand
The dawn discloses
We were dreaming of a land
Where love reposes
But castles made of sand
Like winter roses are fated to die
My darling, like you and I
My darling

Where are those sweet Septembers?
The joy my heart remembers?
Lost in the shadows of the past
The rainbow watched above you
The sacred words, "I love you"
Why did that dream go by so fast?
