Oh these many years I've loved you no one has ever known
|
No one has ever known but you alone
|
I've kept it locked inside my heart and smiled though all my tears
|
My darling I have loved you oh so many years
|
Each night within my lonely world I cried dear over you
|
And prayed to God the things will turn out right
|
But when the dawn of day appears I brush away my tears
|
My darling I have loved you oh so many years
|

|
I'll just go on pretending that my life is oh so gay
|
And happy dear without you by my side
|
When all the time my heart keeps longing just to have you near
|
My darling I have loved you oh so many years
|
Maybe fate will lead us down a path where we will meet again
|
And then we'll both be free to love anew
|
Then one sweet kiss from your dear lips will vanish all my fear
|
My darling I have loved you oh so many years
|
