The summer sun looked down
 On our love long ago
 But in my heart I feel
 The same old afterglow

 A love so beautiful
 In every way
 A love so beautiful
 We let it slip away

 We were too young to understand
 To ever know
 That lovers drift apart
 and that's the way love goes
 A love so beautiful
 A love so sweet
 A love so beautiful
 A love for you and me

 And I when I think of you
 I fall in love again
 A love so beautiful
 In every way

 A love so beautiful
 We let it slip away
 A love so beautiful
 In every way

 A love so beautiful
 We let it slip away
