Our hands are clasped, alas, forever Perhaps we'll never meet again I love you like I love no other This parting fills my heart with pain As through this weary world I wander My thoughts alone will be of you In memory will I see you ever I loved you better than you knew [Instrumental break] You ask and freely I'll forgive you The happy past I must forget And while I wander alone in silence I hope that you'll be happy yet As through this weary world I wander My thoughts alone will be of you In memory will I see you ever I loved you better than you knew [Instrumental break] Perhaps when I am gone forever You'll sometimes sit and think of me And wonder if I'm dead or living Perhaps I'll think the same of you As through this weary world I wander My thoughts alone will be of you In memory will I see you ever I loved you better than you knew.
