You told me once you were mine, alone, forever,
An' I was yours till the end of eternity.
But all those vows are broken now an' I will never,
Be the same except in memory.
Remember me when the candle lights are gleamin'.
Remember me at the close of a long, long day.
An' it would be so sweet when all alone, I'm dreamin',
Just to know you still remember me.
Instrumental break.
A brighter face may take my place when we're apart, dear:
Another love, with a heart more bold and free.
But in the end, fairweather friends may break your heart, dear.
An' if they do, sweetheart, remember me.
Remember me when the candle lights are gleamin'.
Remember me at the close of a long, long day.
An' it would be so sweet when all alone, I'm dreamin',
Just to know you still remember me.
