When The World Was Beautiful

I remember when the world was beautiful
And starlight filled the sky
When your eyes would smile at me
No man was happier than I

I remember when the world was beautiful
And each kiss was a dream
With you close, so close to my heart
There wasn't a cloud to be seen

But skies turned to gray
The day you went away
Stars lost all their charms
The day heaven left my arms

I remember when the world was beautiful
Paradise was at my door
But only if you return
Could the world be beautiful once more
