We vowed our true love, though a word wasn't said 
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies 
Except for the few that were there in your eyes

The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on 
Could we but recall that sweet moment sublime 
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time

The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn 
The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on 
Could we but recall that sweet moment sublime 
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time
