Words and music by Brian May
When I'm gone, no need to wonder if I ever think of you
The same moon shines, the same wind blows for both of us
And time is but a paper moon... be not gone
Though I'm gone, it's as though I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows, The blossom knows
There's no-one else could warm my heart as much as you... be not gone
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night, let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
Teo toriatte konomama iko, Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni, Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
Hear my song still think of me, the way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long, but dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes, and you can be with me
Dream on...
Teo toriatte konomama iko, Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni, Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
When I'm gone, they'll say we were all fools
And we don't understand
Oh be strong don't turn your heart
We're all, you're all, we're all for all, for always
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love my love
In the quiet of the night, let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
