As Ever I Did When

I made a promise to my abandoned neglected heart That when tonight is over and it gets cold and dark. I'll walk you back down that old lover's lane And calm your trembling hand, just the same… As ever I did when we were young and in love As ever I did when we were young and in love. Oh, I'll hold you in my arms… And count my good luck charms Forever if you'd just now remember The times we had spent together! When we weren't that much older Then two babes; rocking in a cradle of love Then two babes; rocking in a cradle of that love. Oh, when, I promised you I'll never be unfaithful Never, unthoughtful… untruthful… Back when, back when, in our love. You promised you'd go easy on me and never quit. Oh, when, I promised I'd be more understanding & romantic And even make your heart beat a little bit more or less frantic As ever I did when we were young and in love As ever I did when we were young and in love. In those times of old, we spent together! Walking down an old lover's lane When I calmed your trembling hand, just the same When we weren't that much older Then two babes; rocking in a cradle of love Then two babes; rocking in a cradle of that love.
