I've been changin' But the burnin' stays the same What can I do to tame the heat of this fire? Forever savin' The remnants of a love Like ancient stories told from another time Eternally painted on my mind Mmm Color it gray Until I forget you Like I never met you My dearest Clementine Throw it away But close enough to you 'Cause although I hate you I will still fall in love, my Clementine Every time, mmm And if you're fadin' Then honey I'll be fadin' too Darling, I don't even know who I am without you Forever waitin' Times never wasted and still I find myself growin' old over you You came in a dream You touched the depths of my mind Oh, no, no, no Color it gray Until I forget you Like I never met you My dearest Clementine Throw it away But close enough to you 'Cause although I hate you I will still fall in love, my Clementine Every time, always No matter how hard I try My Clementine, every time Oh, oh, oh, oh Color it gray Until I forget you Like I never met you My dearest, my dearest Clementine Color it gray Until I forget you Like I never met you (oh, oh) My dearest Clementine (my dearest Clementine) Throw it away But close enough to you 'Cause although I hate you ('cause although I hate you) I will still fall in love, my Clementine (I'll still fall in love) Every time, always No matter how hard I try My Clementine, every time Mmm, mmm You're always on my mind
