I let a song go out of my heart
It was the sweetest melody
I
know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song

Since you and I have drifted
apart
Life doesn't mean a thing to me
Please come back, sweet music, I
know I was wrong

Am I too late to make amends?
You know that we were
meant to be more than just friends, just friends

I let a song go out of
my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until
you return some day



I let a song go out of
my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until
you return some day
