ANNIVERSARY SONG

Dinah Shore

(Al Jolson & Saul Chapin — after Ivanovici)

(«The Jolson Story»)

Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed;

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.

Dear, as I held you so close in my arms,

angels were singing a hymn to your charms,

Two hearts gently beating were murmuring low,

«My darling, I love you so.»

The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn;

the sun shone anew but the dance lingered on.

Could we but relive that sweet moment sublime,

we’d find that our love is unaltered by time.
