Memories of him make me upset,
His love I cannot forget.
With autumn's onset,
Love's sunset.
Sigh.

Yonder stands the bench where we first met,
Warm kisses made our lips wet.
With autumn's onset,
Love's sunset.
Lie.

He fled away with that sly coquette.
With sorrow I am beset.
With autumn's onset,
Love's sunset.
Bye.
