Stella Dear Sweet Stella

Stella dear dear sweet Stella
My memories of you are sweet my thoughts of you are kind
You're as warm as summertime as colorful as autumn
As gentle as the snowflakes falling on a winter's day
You're as fresh as springtime like a ray of sunshine
Sweeter than the flowers blooming in the month of May

Stella dear dear sweet Stella
You're forever present in my mind
Stella dear dear sweet Stella
My memories of you are sweet my thoughts of you are kind
[ instrumental ]
Stella if I'd've ever hurt you it wasn't because I meant to
For I would never hurt you knowingly
Stella I have loved you much longer than I can remember
And I will always love you even though you're gone from me

Stella dear dear sweet Stella..

(Stella Stella)
Stella dear sweet Stella
