If today the sun should set on all my hopes and cares
|
There is one who's smiling face the gods would see
|
For she'll walk along beside me up the golden stairs
|
Oh, they'll never, never take her love from me
|
|
What a fool I was to go and break the trust she gave
|
And see her love turn into sympathy
|
It's the one regret I carry with me to my grave
|
Oh, they'll never, never take her love from me
|
|
I'm so thankful for each golden hour of happiness
|
That we shared together in the used to be
|
Someone else's arms may hold her now in fond caress
|
But, they'll never, never take her love from me
|
|
I thought I would make her happy if I stepped aside
|
But I knew her love would never set me free
|
And even on the morning she became another's bride
|
I said, "They'll never, never take her love from me."
