Can't run away from you, dear, I've tried so hard but I fear

You'll always follow me near and far

Just when I think that I'm set, just when I've learned to forget

I close my eyes, dear, and there you are



You keep coming back like a song

A song that keeps saying, "Remember"



The sweet used-to-be that was once you and me

Keeps coming back like an old melody



The perfume of roses in May

Returns to my room in December



From out of the past where forgotten things belong

You keep coming back like a song
