Answer me, oh, my love
  Just what sin have I been guilty of?
  Tell me how I came to lose your love
  Please answer me, sweetheart
  
  You were mine yesterday
  I believed that love was here to stay
  Won't you tell me where I've gone astray?
  Please answer me, my love
  
  If you're happier without me
  I'll try not to care
  But if you still think about me
  Please listen to my prayer
  
  You must know I've been true
  Won't you say that we can start anew?
  In my sorrow now I turn to you
  Please answer me, my love
  
  (If you're happier without me)
  (I'll try not to care)
  But if you still think about me
  Please listen to my prayer
  
  You must know (you must know)I've been true
  (I've been true)
  Won't you say that we can start anew?
  In my sorrow now I turn to you
  Please answer me, my love
  
  Answer me, my love
