E Esus4 E Am A9 Am
Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed;
Dm D9 Dm Am A9 Am E Fdim E Am
We vowed our true love though a word wasn't said.
E Esus4 E Am A9 Am
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies,
Dm D9 Dm Am A9 Am E Fdim E Am
Except for the few that were there in your eyes.
F Dm7 G9 G Bm5-/7 C
Dear, as I held you so close in my arms,
F Dm7 G9 G Bm5-/7 C
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms,
Dm Dm7+ Dm7 Am
Two hearts gently beating were murmuring low,
Dm7 Am E7 Am
"My darling, I love you so."
E Esus4 E Am A9 Am
The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn;
Dm D9 Dm Am A9 Am E Fdim E Am
The sun shone a new but the dance lingered on.
E Esus4 E Am A9 Am
Could we but relive that sweet moment sublime,
Dm D9 Dm Am A9 Am E Fdim E Am
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time.
