You once were the sun that brightened up my day
You once were the flame of love that showed me the way
Now that the time has passed
I still remember all the good things we had

You once were the wings with which my heart could fly
We once had a love so sweet but just let it go
There was no hurt or pain
We just reached a point and then we let it drift away

You can't take such sweet memories away
They will always be
Forever in my mind for all time
And i know the feelin's just as strong
'cos i can see it in your eyes
To recreate what happened long ago
Wouldn't be so wise
Just keep the flame alive in your mind
That's where it should stay with us
Forever i'll be always on your mind

I once was the love on which you could depend
We once had a love we thought would never end
Now after all the years
I look back with joy and happiness
There's no need for tears
