My darling come to me
Sit you down easily
And rest awhile near the soft fire light
Cold is the night
But warm is my heart with pride
Having you by my side
You're still my guiding light
After all these years
Your soft assuring ways
The rock I lean on
Saw me through my darkest days
When all hope had gone
You're still the only one
I'll ever hold near
And I love you
After a-all these years
Time from me passes on
And I'm growing old
A lifetime nearly gone
I cannot unfold, nights dark and cold
But warm is your hand in mine
Feeble with aimless time
The light of love still shines
After a-all these years
Your soft assuring ways
The rock I lean on
Saw me through my darkest days
When all hope had gone
You're still the only one
I'll ever hold near
And I love you
After all these years.
