 Love of my life, you've hurt me  You will remember

You've broken my heart and now you
leave me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me, because
you don't know
What it means to me
 Love of my life, don't leave me
You've stolen my love, you now desert
me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back (back)
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me
When this is blown over
Everything's all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side to remind
you
How I still love you (I still love you)
 I still love you
 Oh, hurry back, hurry back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know what it means
to me
Love of my life
Love of my life
Ooh, eh (alright)

 ON CHILDREN
Your children are not your children…
They are the sons and daughters of the life’s longing itself
They come through you, but not from you
And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you
You may give them your love but not your thought
For they have their own thoughts
You may house their bodies but not their souls
For their soul dwell in the house of tomorrow
Which you can’t visit, not even on your dreams
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them
like you,
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday………
