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 memory 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 memory 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 memory 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.
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 memory from my brain
I can't forget you,
And that's what love will do,
That's what love will do,
That's what love will do.
