Forever my darling
My love will be true
Always and forever
I'll love just you

Just promise me darlin'
Your love in return
May this fire in my soul dear
Forever burn

My heart's at your command dear
To keep, love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire
Keeping you is my goal

My heart's at your command dear
To keep, love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire
Keeping you is my goal

I'll forever love you
The rest of my days
I'll never part from you
And your loving ways

Just promise me darlin'
Your love in return
May this fire in my soul dear
Forever burn
