Lyrics

A Love So Beautiful

The summer sun looked down on our love long ago

But in my heart I feel the same old afterglow

A love so beautiful

In every way

A love so beautiful

We let it slip away

We were too young to understand, to ever know

That lovers drift apart and that's the way love goes

A love so beautiful

A love so sweet

A love so beautiful

A love for you and me

And when I think of you

I fall in love again

A love so beautiful

In every way

A love so beautiful

We let it slip away, away

A love, a love

A love so beautiful

In every way

A love so beautiful

We let it slip away
