Don't look so sad-, I know it's over.

But life goes on, and this old world will keep on turning.

Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together.

Lay your head upon my pillow.

Hold your warm and tender body close to mine.
 5   -5   6   6  6   6   -6   6
Hear the whisper of the raindrops,
 6  -6   6   -5  -5   5   6  -5
Blowin' soft against the window,

And make believe you love me one more time------,

Don't say a word about tommorrow or forever,

There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me.
