Here is my heart with all my love
They both belong to you
Year after year, I'll love you, dear
No matter what we go through
When your hair has turned to silver
I will love you just the same
I will only call you sweetheart
That will always be your name
Through a garden filled with roses
Down the sunset trail we'll stray
When your hair has turned to silver
I will love you as today
Always it seems I've built my dreams
All bound around you, dear
And I'll confess, my happiness
Means having you always near
Through a garden filled with roses
Down the sunset trail we'll stray
When your hair has turned to silver
I will love you as today
