Forever and ever my heart will be true,
Sweetheart for ever I'll wait for you.
We both made a promise that we'd never part,
Let's seal it with a kiss for ever, my sweetheart!

Let bygones be bygones for ever,
We'll fall in love once again,
So let's tell the world of our new love divine,
Forever and ever you'll be mine!

We both made a promise that we'd never part,
Let's seal it with a kiss for ever, my sweetheart!
