Lyrics

Do (B7)do do do (Emaj7)do.

Mm.

Do (B7)do do do (Emaj7)do.

As a round the sun the earth knows she’s re volv ing,

and the (Bmaj7)rose buds know to bloom in ear ly May;

just as hate knows love’s the cure, you can rest your mind as sure that I’ll be lov ing you al ways.

As now can’t re veal the mys t’ry of to mor row,

but in pass ing will grow old er ev ’ry day;

just as all that’s born is new, the you know what I say is true, that I’ll be lov ing you al (D#7)ways.

(Un til the rain bow burns the (G#m)stars out in the sky.) Al ways (Un til the o cean cov ers (G#m)ev ’ry moun tain high.) Al ways (Un til the dol phin flies and (C#)par rots live at sea.) Al (D#7)ways.

(Un til we dream of life and (G#m)life be comes a dream.)

Did you know that true love asks for noth ing?

Her ac cep tance is the way we pay.

Did you know that life has giv en love a guar an tee to last through for ev er and an oth er day?

(F#)Just as be lov ing you al ways.

(Un til the day is night and night be comes the day.) Al ways.

(Un til the trees and seas just (G#m)up and fly a way.) Al ways.

(Un til the day that 8 x 8 x 8 is 4.) Al ways.

(Un til the day that is the (G#m)day that are no more.) Al ways.
