That yellow dress you wore
When we went dancing Sunday nights
That smile you give me
In the movies when they dim the lights
I've tried in vain to wash the mem'ry from my brain
I can't forget you
And that's what love will do
That's what love will do

The spins we took together
On my beat-out motorbike
The look your pa would give me
When we got back late at night
I've tried in vain to wash the mem'ry from my brain
I can't forget you
And that's what love will do
That's what love will do

I never see you except now and then
But when I see you
The longing starts all over again

Put out the candle
And tomorrow it looks bright again
But when I lost you
It could never be put right again
What can I do?
My mem'ry won't let go of you
I can't forget you
And that's what love will do
That's what love will do

I've tried in vain to wash the mem'ry from my brain
I can't forget you
And that's what love will do
That's what love will do
