Those memories of you still haunt me Every night when I lay down I'll always love you, my little darling Until the day they lay me down In dreams of you my body trembles I wake up and I call your name Oh, but you're not there and I'm so lonesome Without your love I'd go insane Those memories of you still haunt me Every night when I lay down I'll always love you, my little darling Until the day they lay me down I close my eyes and you're here with me Your kiss I feel and your face I see Oh, but it's not your lips now that drive me crazy It's just your haunting memory Those memories of you still haunt me Every night as I lay down I'll always love you, my little darling Until the day they lay me down Those memories of you still haunt me Every night when I lay down I'll always love you, my little darling Until the day they lay me down Those memories of you still haunt me Every night as I lay down I'll always love you, my little darling Until the day they lay me down
