loneliness remembers what happiness forgets

Dionne Warwick

Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
I had to lose you to recall
That life's not really all sunshine and laughter

Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
And when you fall in love too fast
The sunshine doesn't last forever
After whenever a drop of rain
First came the pleasure
And then the pain

We were the talk of the town
Ask anybody around they'll let you know
We were the fire that lit the stars
No other love was as bright as ours
Everything's turning around
Gone is the love that I found
You went away, now I'm alone

Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
And when you fall in love too fast
The sunshine doesn't last forever
After whenever a drop of rain
First came the pleasure
And then came
All the pain
