When Your Lover Has Gone

From ages to ages the poets and sages,

Of love glorious love always sing,

But ask any lover and you'll soon discover,

The heartaches that romance can bring,

When you're alone, who cares for starlit skies

When you're alone, the magic moonlight dies

At break of dawn, there is no sunrise

When your lover has gone

What lonely hours, the evening shadows bring

What lonely hours, with memories lingering

Like faded flowers, life can't mean anything

When your lover has gone
