No need to say you're sorry

No need to feel ashamed

If I'm not the one you love

Don't feel you're to blame



I don't deny it hurts me

And this pain is hard to hide

But at least I lived a little while

Before I died



I lived long enough to know

The sweet thrill of your lips

I knew happiness

Right down to my finger tips



You'll always be a part of me

Though you can't be mine

At least I lived a little while

Before I died



Don't ask me to forget you

'Cause you mean too much to me

I couldn't even if I tried

Too many memories



My yesterday's were happy days

And each mem'ry's locked inside

At least I lived a little while

Before I died



I lived long enough to know

The sweet thrill of your lips

I knew happiness

Right down to my finger tips



You'll always be a part of me

And though you can't be mine

At least I lived a little while

Before I died
