I hear footsteps slowly walking

As they gently walk across a lonely floor

And a voice is softly saying, "Darling

This will be goodbye for ever more"



There goes my reason for living

There goes the one of my dreams

There goes my only possession

There goes my everything



As my memory turns back the pages

I can see the happy years we had before

Now the love that kept this old heart beating

Has been shattered by the closing of the door
