Verse 1

WHEN FIRST I SAW THE LOVE-LIGHT IN YOUR EYE,
AND HEARD THY VOICE, LIKE SWEET-EST MEL-O-DY,
SPEAK WORDS OF LOVE TO MY EN-RAP-TUR'D SOUL.
THE WORLD HAD NAUGHT BUT JOY IN STORE FOR ME.
E'EN THOUGH WE'RE DRIFT-ING DOWN LIFE'S STREAM A-PART,
YOUR FACE I STILL CAN SEE IN DREAM'S DO-MAIN;
I KNOW THAT IT WOULD EASE MY BREAK-ING HEART,
TO HOLD YOU IN MY ARMS JUST ONCE A-GAIN.

Chorus 1

I LOVE YOU AS I NEV-ER LOVED BE-FORE,
SINCE FIRST I MET YOU ON THE VIL-LAGE GREEN.
COME TO ME OR MY DREAM OF LOVE IS O'ER,
I LOVE YOU AS I LOVED YOU, WHEN YOU WERE SWEET.
WHEN YOU WERE SWEET SIX-TEEN.

Verse 2

LAST NIGHT I DREAMT I HELD YOUR HAND IN MINE,
AND ONCE A-GAIN YOU WERE MY HAP-PY BRIDE.
I KISS'D YOU AS I DID IN AULD LANG SYNE,
AS IN THE CHURCH WE WAN-DER'D SIDE BY SIDE.
THE LOVE I BEAR FOR YOU CAN NEV-ER DIE;
WITH-OUT YOU, I HAD RATHER PUT LOVE HERE;
AND, EV-EN THO' WE NEV-ER MEET A-GAIN,
I LOVE YOU AS THE SUN-SHINE LOVES THE MORN.

Chorus 2

I LOVE YOU AS I NEV-ER LOVED BE-FORE,
SINCE FIRST I MET YOU ON THE VIL-LAGE GREEN.
COME TO ME OR MY DREAM OF LOVE IS O'ER,
I LOVE YOU AS I LOVED YOU, WHEN YOU WERE SWEET,
WHEN YOU WERE SWEET SIX-TEEN.
