It was a cold november-day
Raindrops on the window
I was asking you to stay
Hoping you wouldn't deny
And then you gave me that smile
It only took me a while
To see my heart was burning just for you
And life with you is like a paradise
Standing hand in hand
And that's just when I realise
These memories are the treasures of my past
Deep down in my heart
The strongest emotions
Never wanting us apart
I'm feeling hot devotion
And every secret we share
Nothing we can't take care
Knowing our hearts share
The strongest love of all
And life with you is like a paradise
Standing hand in hand
And that's just when I realise
These memories are the treasures of my past
And then you gave me that smile
It only took me a while
To see my heart was burning just for you
And life with you is like a paradise
Standing hand in hand
And that's just when I realise
These memories are the treasures of my past
And life with you is like a paradise
Standing hand in hand
And that's just when I realise
These memories are the treasures of my past
These memories are the treasures of my past
