"Life's Sweetest Moment" lyrics

Life's Sweetest Moment

When I think of sorrows I have known
It hurts me not at all
I look back and laugh at things
That once made teardrops fall

But the memory of time spent with you
Makes my heartstrings freeze
Why do life's sweetest moments, babe
The saddest memories?

The hands of home, the clock were still
With you in my embrace
And then your lips touched mine and said
No one could take my place

How could such love and happiness
Bring such miseries?
Why do life's sweetest moments, babe
The saddest memories?

Disappointments come my way
And linger for a while
Life can had its darker days
And I face them with a smile

But it hurts so much to think of you
You'll haunt my reveries
Why do life's sweetest moments, babe
The saddest memories?

But it hurts so much to think of you
You'll haunt my reveries
Why do life's sweetest moments, babe
The saddest
Memories?
