All too soon
We had to part
The moment you had touched my heart
And with you went my dream

All too soon
All too sweet
Was our affair
And you put all the sweetness there

What a shame that it's gone
All too soon
I knew the strange delights
That only you in love could bring

And as I reached the heights
The bottom fell from everything
You should know as well as I
Our love deserves another try

For we whispered goodbye
All too soon
Too soon
