Take away the breath of flowers it would surely be a sin

Take the rain from April showers it's a sin

Take away the violins dear from a lovely symphony

And the music deep within would cease to be

Is it a sin to love you so to hold you close and know you are leaving

Though you take away my heart dear still the beatin' there within

I'll keep loving you forever for it's no sin

[ strings ]

(To hold you close and know you are leaving)

Though you take away my heart dear...
