Lyrics

  1. Forever and forever, dear
    Love’s story will be told
    I want to have you ever near
    And love shall ne’er grow old
    Forever and forever, dear
    The roses bloom and die
    But love’s a rose that never fades
    Sweetheart love cannot die

Chorus
I have no golden treasures
To give to you my own
I have no wond’rous kingdom
Nor for you a throne
I have no gift but love, dear
But I’ve a heart that’s true
I’ll keep on loving you forever
I’d give my life for you

  1. The hilltops love the mountains, dear
    The sunbeams love the dew
    The restless ocean loves the shore
    And so my heart loves you
    And still thro’ all eternity
    Love’s dream can ne’er depart
    For love’s a rose that blooms for you
    Forever in my heart
