Somebody loved me with all of his heart
Chose me alone, from the whole world apart
For me the love-light shone deep in his eyes,
I was the sun, moon and stars in his skies.
Now, at the end of this earth-weary trek
Worn and neglected, in dreams I go back,
Memory dries every tear at the start—
Somebody loved me with all of his heart.
