We were a wonderful pair, so they tell me
We had a heaven to share, so they tell me
Everyone says that we lived in a dream just yesterday
It's strange how a beautiful scheme can fade away
Our love was out of a book, so they tell me
We had that far-away look, so they tell me
And then heaven tumbled, and now we are through
How in the world can it be?
I can't tell myself that it's true
So they tell me

Our love was out of a book, so they tell me
We had that far-away look, so they tell me
And then heaven tumbled, and now we are through
How in the world can it be?
I can't tell myself that it's true
So they tell me
