Ann Breen


(Also recorded by others, as yet unknown)




I値l be your sweetheart
If you will be mine
All my life 
I値l be your valentine
Bluebells I値l gather
Keep them and be true
When I知 a man, my plan
Will be to marry you


One day I saw two lovers in a garden
A little boy and girl with golden hair
At first I thought of asking for their pardon
With second thoughts I watched the youthful pair
The boy, all blushing, gave the maid a kiss
And tenderly he whispered this


I値l be your sweetheart
If you will be mine
All my life 
I値l be your valentine
Bluebells I値l gather
Keep them and be true
When I知 a man, my plan
Will be to marry you


I値l be your sweetheart
If you will be mine
All my life 
I値l be your valentine
Bluebells I値l gather
Keep them and be true
When I知 a man, my plan
Will be to marry you
