Burt Bacharach
Loneliness Remembers What Happiness Forgets
[Verse 1]
Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
I had to lose you to recall life's not really all sunshine and laughter
Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
And when you fall in love too fast, sunshine doesn't last forever
[Chorus]
After and ever, a drop of rain
First came the pleasure and then the pain
We were the talk of the town
Ask anybody around, they'll let you know
[Verse 2]
We were the fire that lit the stove
No other love is as bright as ours
And everything's turning around
Gone was the love I had found, you went away
Now I'm alone
[Outro]
Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
And when you fall in love too fast, sunshine doesn't last forever
After and ever, a drop of rain
First came the pleasure and then came
All the pain
