I realise the way
your eyes deceive me
With tender looks that I
mistook for love
So take away the flowers
that you gave me
And send the kind
that you remind me of
Paper roses, paper roses,
Oh how real those roses
seem to me
But they're only imitation
Like your imitation love for me
Why does the sun
go on shining?
Why does the sea
rush to shore?
Don't they know
it's the end of the world?
'Cause you don't love
me any more
Why do the birds
go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know
it's the end of the world?
It ended when I lost your love
I wake-up in the morning,
and I wonder
Why everything's the same
as it was
I can't understand,
no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Love me with all of your heart
That's all I want, love
Love me with all of your heart
as I love you
Just promise me this
That you'll give me
all your kisses
Every winter,
every summer,
every fall
When we are far apart
or when you're near me
Love me with all of your heart
as I love you
Don't give me your love
For a moment, or an hour
Love me always
as you've loved me
from the start
With every beat of your heart
He said he had to work
So I went to the show alone
They turned down the lights
And turned the projector on
And just as the news
of the world started to begin
I saw my darlin'
and my best friend walk in
Though I was sittin' there
they didn't see
And so they sat
right down in front of me
When he kissed her lips
I almost died
And in the middle
of the color cartoon
I started to cry.
Oh-oh-oh, sa-a-a-d movies
Always make me cry
Oh-oh-oh, sa-a-a-d movies
Always make me cry
I bless the day I found you
I wanna stay around you
Now and forever, let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever, let it be me
Each time we meet, love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be?
So, never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
let it be me
Desmond has a barrow
in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says to Molly, "Girl,
I like your face"
And Molly says this as she
takes him by the hand
Happy ever after
in the market place
Desmond lets the children
lend a hand
Molly stays at home
and does her pretty face
And in the evening
she still sings it with the band
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
La-la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
La-la, how the life goes on
La-la, how the life goes on
La-la, how the life goes on
