Lyrics
LOVE FOR THE AGES
He said, do you hear
The train whistle near?
I?ve got to get goin?
My time?s come to fly.
Leavin? you hurts me so,
But I have to go.
Your love will ride with me
As I mark every mile.
And each night in your dreams
I?ll hold you again.
We?ll dance underneath
The moonlight and then
You?ll lie in my arms
As I pull you near
The heavens will sigh
With words soft and clear.
This love for the ages
Will carry us through
Hold on to the sweet times
?Til I come for you.
She stood by the door;
Said, I need you more.
Can?t remember a day
That you weren?t by my side.
Won?t know what to do
Alone without you.
She said, do you promise
I?ll take the next ride?
And each night in my dreams
You?ll hold me again.
We?ll dance underneath
The moonlight and then
I?ll lie in your arms
As you pull me near.
The heavens will sigh
With words soft and clear.
This love for the ages
Is all I can see.
Through tears and heart achin?
?Til you come for me.
And each night in her dreams
He held her again.
They danced underneath
The moonlight and then
She lay in his arms
And he pulled her near.
The heavens would sigh
With words soft and clear.
This love for the ages
Carried them on.
?Til they were together
Where they belong.
