Don't dwell on the past
Of there was lost and didn't last
That summer bloom is fading fast
But I'm falling for you
Don't dwell on the pain
The tears you've cried
An autumn rain
That fair weather's here and gone again
But I'm waiting for you
Don't dwell on the loss
The fool that would steal break and toss
That winter's heart will spurn and double-cross
But I'm yearning for you
Don't dwell on the time
The seasons change
And so does the clime
That old flame has cooled
But I'm burning for you
