One little kiss, a moment of bliss, then hours of deep regret One little smile, and after a while, a longing to forget One little heartache left as a token One little plaything carelessly broken Remember the night The night you said, "I love you" Remember? Remember you vowed By all the stars above you Remember? Remember we found a lonely spot And after I learned to care a lot You promised that you'd forget me not But you forgot To remember
