Lyrics

For these many years, I've loved you
No-one has ever known
No-one has ever known but you alone
We've kept it locked inside our hearts
And smiled through all the tears
My darlin', I have loved you, oh, so many years

Each night, within my lonely room
I cried, dear, over you
I pray, someday, that things will turn out right
And when the dawn of day appears
I brush away the tears
My darlin', I have loved you, oh, so many years

Mayber fate will lead us down a path
Where we will meet again
And we will both be free to love anew
Then one sweet kiss from your dear lips
Will banish all my tears
My darlin', I have loved you, oh, so many years

I'll just go on pretending
My life is, oh, so gay
And happy, dear, without you by my side
When all the time, my heart is longing
Just to have you near
My darlin', I have loved you, oh, so many years

Oh, my darlin', I have loved you, oh, so many years
