| I will remember you |
| In the way you'd want me to |
| But it's hard to come to terms right now |
| Sunset looked today |
| As if it knew you'd gone away |
| Now it's night, I hear the rain crash down |
|
| Oh, I'd cry, but this is more than just my pain |
| Oh, I could be a shoulder, not a burden |
| And it's time for me to call your son again |
| And say |
|
| She was the starlight in darkness |
| She was the first bloom in spring |
| An angel with a smile like electric light |
| All the time, hit her wings |
| She was the birdsong in morning |
| But now everything here has changed |
| All the world's less beautiful |
| Since you've been away |
|
| I will remember you |
| With white wine by the barbecue |
| On New York at the birthday do, downtown |
| All that comes to mind |
| When I think about the time |
| Is a memory of laughin' out loud |
|
| Oh, I wish, that I could take the pain away |
| And just talk to him in person |
| But it's time for me to call your son again |
| And say |
|
| She was the starlight in darkness |
| She was the first bloom in spring |
| An angel with a smile like electric light |
| All the time, hit her wings |
| She was the birdsong in morning |
| But now everything here has changed |
| All the world's less beautiful |
| Since you've been away |
|
| This doesn't make sense |
| I wish I could change it, but |
| I can't do anything |
| My heart is racin' |
| And my soul is aching, lover |
|
| She was the starlight in darkness |
| She was the first bloom in spring |
| An angel with a smile like electric light |
| All the time, hit her wings |
| She was the birdsong in morning |
| But now everything here has changed |
| All the world's less beautiful |
| Since you've been away |
|
| Hey, the world's less beautiful |
| Since you've been away |
