[Verse 1]
Take away the scent of flowers
Cover up the sky of blue
Close my ears to tender love songs
They remind me too much of you

[Chorus 1]
Hide young lovers' warm embraces
Keep stars and moonlight from my view
Let me forget there are such places
They remind me too much of you

[Verse 2]
Must I evermore be haunted
Day after day, my whole life through
By the memory of each moment
That I spent alone with you?

[Chorus 2]
If these lovely things don't hurt you
Our love just wasn't meant to be
But please come back to me, my darling
If they remind you too much of me
