Lyrics Astrud Gilberto

Astrud Gilberto

Once I Loved

Once I loved,

And I gave so much love to this love,

It was the world to me.

Once I cried,

At the thought I was foolish and proud,

And let you say goodbye.

Then one day,

From my infinite sadness you came,

And brought me love again.

Now I know,

That no matter whatever befalls,

I'll never let you go.

I will hold you close,

Make you stay.

Because love,

Is the saddest thing,

When it goes away.

Because love,

Is the saddest thing,

When it goes away.
