I Remember It Was Said
I remember it was said
Long and long ago
That love is bitter for the heart
But sweet for the soul
That to have loved and lost
Is better than to have never loved at all
Well forget about the brokenhearted
And warn those yet to fall
It is not for the feinting heart
For love does not go untested
Better to avoid the disease
Than end up infested
First you'll ask for pleasure
And then excuse from pain
From all the broken memories
And tears that fall like rain
Love will seem a dream
Sweet felicity
Then will come the nighmare
And your deep desparity
So I give you this warning
From one friend to another
Live for the right now
And forget about forever
