Just why you stopped to talk I've never known...
That Christmas party -- you recall the night? --
You noticed I was leaving on my own.
Your mum says you're a charmer, and she's right.

I guess it must sound trite for me to say
I think the world of you, and yet it's so.
I'd never have you any other way
Than how you are, and that seems good to know.

If you should love another I'll not cry,
Rejoicing that you've found the love you've sought.
Yet do not doubt that as the years go by
Your beauty shall still linger in my thought.

But should you feel for me as I for you,
Then know my love for you is strong and true.
