Take away the breath of flowers, it would surely be a sin
Take the rain from April showers, it's a sin
Take away the violins, dear, from a lovely symphony
And the music deep within would cease to be
Is it a sin to love you, so to hold you close
And know you are leaving?
Though you take away my heart, dear
Still the beatin' there within
I'll keep loving you forever for it's no sin
(To hold you close and know you are leaving)
Though you take away my heart, dear
