The sweetest songs belong to lovers in the gloaming
The sweetest days are the days that used to be
The saddest words I ever heard were words of parting
When you said, 'Sweetheart, remember me'

Remember me when the candle lights are gleaming
Remember me at the close of a long long day
It would be so sweet when all alone
I'm dreaming just to know you still remember me

You told me once that you were mine alone forever
And I was yours till the end of eternity
But all those vows are broken now
And we will never be the same except in memory

Remember me when the candle lights are gleaming
Remember me at the close of a long long day
It would be so sweet when all alone
I'm dreaming just to know you still remember me

A brighter face may take my place when we're apart, dear
A sweeter smile and a love more bold and free
But in the end fairweather friends may break your heart, dear
If they do sweetheart remember me

Remember me when the candle lights are gleaming
Remember me at the close of a long long day
It would be so sweet when all alone
I'm dreaming just to know you still remember me
