Remember there's always tomorrow
So what if we have to part
We'll be together again
Your kiss, your smile
Are memories I'll treasure forever
So try thinking with your heart

Times when I know you'll be lonesome
Times when I know you'll be sad
Don't let temptation surround you
Don't let the blues make you bad
Some day, some way
We both have a lifetime before us
For parting is not goodbye
We'll be together again
