VERSE
I remember when I met you. Much to my surprise,
You looked in my direction, I saw the light there in your eyes.
It was as warm as sunshine, my heart no longer mine,
The light as sweet as Heaven, so radiant in your eyes.
Your eyes told me all about you, oh gentle, warm, and wise.
I listened to the story told by the light there in your eyes.
The day I said I loved you, a smile was your reply,
A smile just like a rainbow, lighting up the sky.
CHORUS
Now there's no sunshine in your smile,
And I wonder what that implies.
You have yet to say goodbye, but I fear it's in your eyes.
Nothing in this world is sadder than when a true love dies.
VERSE
Where is the light that I once knew in your eyes?
It shines for me no more. Oh where now could it be?
Is the love that we once shared now just a sad, sweet memory?
Is it now lost forever, the light that once shined for me?
CHORUS
Now there's no sunshine in your smile,
And I wonder what that implies.
You have yet to say goodbye, but I fear it's in your eyes.
Nothing in this world is sadder than when a true love dies.
Nothing in this world is sadder than when a true love dies.
