Lyrics
- Love is what brought us together
Your love and my love, sweetheart
Still I keep wondering whether
Someone may make us part
Chorus
I hate to think what would happen to me
If anything happened to you
Smiles made of gold would turn into tears
I would grow old though I’d be young in years
To win you, to kiss you is happiness rare
To lose you, to miss you, I never could bear
Oh! I hate to think what would happen to me
If anything happened to you
- We are so happy together
Life seems a gay paradise
Even in dark cloudy weather
Love brightens up the skies
