Lyrics:
First verse
You say the time has come to part, my dearie, You say our love was never meant to last; And with your words the world grows dark and dreary Transformed from golden sunshine of the past
Refrain
The crossroads of our lives have brought us sorrow We falter at the parting of the way How can I face the sadness of tomorrow, Still thinking of the joy of yesterday? To know I've lost your love will always grieve me, But hope will fill my heart until I die Don''t say ""Goodbye forever,"" when you leave me Just ""Auf wiedersehn"" but not ""Goodbye"" The crossroads of our lives have brought us sorrow We falter at the parting of the way How can I face the sadness of tomorrow, Still thinking of the joy of yesterday? To know I've lost your love will always grieve me, But hope will fill my heart until I die Don''t say ""Goodbye forever,"" when you leave me Just ""Auf wiedersehn"" but not ""Goodbye!""
Second verse
Perhaps you'll wish that we had never parted, Perhaps the spark of love again will glow; And then when all alone and heavy hearted You’ll yearn for one who always loved you so
(Refrain)
