Now, in the summer of life, sweetheart
|
You say you love but me
|
Gladly I give all my heart to you
|
Throbbing with ecstasy
|
But last night I saw, while a-dreaming, The future old and gray,
|
And I wondered if you'll love me then, dear
|
Just as you do today?
|
|
Will you love me in December as you do in May?
|
Will you love me in the good old-fashioned way?
|
When my hair has all turned gray,
|
Will you kiss me then and say,
|
That you love me in December as you do in May?
|
|
You say the glow on my cheek, sweetheart
|
Is like the rose so sweet
|
But when the bloom of fair youth has flown
|
Then will our lips still meet?
|
When life's setting sun fades away, dear,
|
And all is said and done,
|
Will you arms still entwine and caress me?
|
Will our hearts beat as one?
|
|
Will you love me in December as you do in May?
|
Will you love me in the good old-fashioned way?
|
When my hair has all turned gray,
|
Will you kiss me then and say,
|
That you love me in December as you do in May?
