The other night I had a dream
that he was laying here with me
he gently touched upon my face
and ran his fingers
through my hair
But that was only but a dream
he has found somebody new
he does not think about my love
it was I who broke his heart
in two
'Cause he'll never know
just how much I love him
he will never know
just how much I care
my love will linger on
my love will linger on
I thought I saw him yesterday
I thought I saw him yesterday
walking down Graften street
but that was just another man
that was just another man
my eyes were playing tricks on me
O O O ooo oo
it's been a year and still I can't
forget about the way it felt
when it wrapped his arms around
my waist
and softly whispered in my ear
'Cause he'll never know
just how much I love him
he will never know
just how much I care
my love will linger on
my love will linger on
I'd go up to the moon and back
I'd give him everything I have
to make him feel the way I do oh
see I finally understand
what it is
to love a man
oh what such a bitter sweet
romance
He'll never know
just how much I love him
he will never know
just how much I care
my love will linger on
my love will linger on
my love my love my love
my love
Said he'll never know
just how much I love him
I love him I love him
he will never know
just how much I care no no
should my love will linger on
my love will linger on
my love my love my love
my love
my love will linger on
my love my love my love
my love
my love will linger on
my love my love my love
my love
