(1957) Paul Francis Webster, Jerry Livingston

|
You ask me how much I need you
|
Must I explain
|
I need you oh my darling
|
Like roses need rain
|
You ask how long I'll love you
|
I'll tell you true
|
Until the Twelfth of Never
|
I'll still be loving you
|
|
Hold me close
|
Never let me go
|
Hold me close
|
Melt my heart like April snow
|
|
I'll love you 'til the bluebells
|
Forget to bloom
|
I'll love you 'til the clover
|
Has lost its perfume
|
And I'll love you 'til the poets
|
Run out of rhyme
|
Until the Twelfth of Never
|
And that's a long, long time
|
|
Hold me close
|
Never let me go
|
Hold me close
|
Melt my heart like April snow
|
|
I'll love you 'til the bluebells
|
Forget to bloom
|
I'll love you 'til the clover
|
Has lost its perfume
|
And I'll love you 'til the poets
|
Run out of rhyme
|
Until the Twelfth of Never
|
And that's a long, long time
|
Until the Twelfth of Never
|
And that's a long, long time
|
A long, long time
|
