Shades of night are falling, bringing memories
Memories of a bygone day
Though it be December, though we're old and grey
To me you're still my blushing bride of May
When your old wedding ring was new
And each dream that we dreamed came true
I remember with pride how we stood side by side
What a beautiful picture you made as my bride
Even though silver crowns your hair
I can still see those gold ringlets there
Love's old flame is the same
As the day I changed your name
When your old wedding ring was new
