Lyrics
The days of autumn splendor
Those moments warm and tender
Was it too beautiful to last?
The love we shared together
The dreams we dared to gather
Was it too beautiful to last?
Walking hand in hand
The dawn discloses
We were dreaming of a land
Where love reposes
But castles made of sand
Like winter roses are fated to die
My darling, like you and I
My darling
Where are those sweet Septembers
The joy my heart remembers
Lost in the shadows of the past?
The rainbow arched above you
The sacred words, "I love you"
Why did that dream go by so fast?
Walking hand in hand
The dawn discloses
We were dreaming of a land
Where love reposes
But castles made of sand
Like winter roses are fated to die
My darling, like you and I
My darling
Where are those sweet Septembers
The joy my heart remembers
Lost in the shadows of the past?
The rainbow arched above you
The sacred words, "I love you"
Why did that dream go by so fast?
Was it too beautiful?
Was it too beautiful to last?
