When your hair has turned to gray from gold
One day when we have both grown old
When time has past and years have gone
Another new era for us will dawn
You hair will be gray and cheeks gone pale
My eyes may be dim and the old bones frail
Your frame may be stooped and you use a cane
It may hurt to stand and you may be in pain
The old brain may be slow and thoughts won’t go
But when I look at you, the same girl I know
That held me close way back when we were young
That held my hand on the swing as we swung
The golden curls flowing down your back
The blue of you eyes made my knees go slack

 

And as we waltzed all around the floor
I was the envied by many and many more
You in your gown of golden starlight
Me in my gold tie and jacket of white
That was a picture we made so long ago
The night was alive and we were aglow
We were so young a whole life ahead
Eyes all a sparkle and your lips so red
No gray in our hair no lines on our face
Maybe today others may see a trace
But my darling we will always remain
As that young couple then are still the same
All though many years have come and past
That same sweet love will always last
