Every night in my dreams
I don't see you or feel you
That is how I know you're quite dead
Far across the distance
And ocean between us
That is how I know you sink fast
Near, far, stay right where you are
I believe that your heart won't go on
Once more you sink to the floor
And you're here in my heart but
Your heart won't go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a short time
And let go as soon as you're gone
Love was when I loved you
One true time I held to
I bet your remains are long-gone
Near, far, stay right where you are
I believe that your heart won't go on
Once more you sink to the floor
And you're here in my heart but
Your heart won't go on and on
You're not here, there's lots that I fear
'Cause I know that your heart won't go on
I'll stay if you go away
You are safe in my heart but
Your heart won't go on and on!
