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.
