Today you tell me you are leaving that you are going far away

Darling I've got no way of holding you so this is all that I can say

You can't take my mem'ries of you you can go and leave me oh so blue

Break my heart and you can make me cry but you can't take my mem'ries of you



I tried every way to make you happy but I guess it was never meant to be

So today you say you are going far away across the deep blue sea

Now after you are gone my darling each night I go down to the sea

And gaze at the stars as I wonder where you are

And pray some day that you'll come back to me

But you can't take my mem'ries...
