Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It is obvious to you that at the time our love is through
Even though we love each other in a special way
I couldn't give you everything you wanted me to give
[Verse 2]
But here you are with the ring on your finger, saying
That you used to love me
When really it's not right for us to be together
But, darling, I still love you
[Verse 3]
So take me now and let me love you
That's all I really want to do
'Cause after time is over
I know you'll be going back to him
[Verse 4]
Speak easy and release yourself
We know and that's enough
Speak easy
We'll always have the memory of our love
[Verse 5]
Don't worry about tomorrow
'Cause we'll be away and so very far apart
And you know I'll always love you
Even though you've got to go back to him
[Verse 6]
Oh, speak easy, and release yourself
I know, baby, that's all I wanna to know
Speak easy
We'll always have the memory of our love
