FOR THE REST OF MY DAYS (based on 'Prince Igor')

Oh, my love, you're so lovely tonight -
Come what may, I don't care about tomorrow.
Even though we may go separate ways,
I'll be blessed for the rest of my days.
While there's starlight above, hold me tight -
So much joy could not ever bring me sorrow.
I'll be blessed with a memory that stays
Through all the rest of my days.
This little spark that we light,
Let it burn, let it blaze!
We could both live a lifetime tonight
Though it be just a moment that we borrow.
Darling, make this the best of my days -
Make me blessed for the rest of my days.
