Throughout the passing years

As all the world seems ever changing

We share the smiles and tears

Of life, with love that's so far ranging

And after all is said and done

I'll be the one beside you

I'll be your love and loyal friend

Until the end, beside you

Each flower bends with time

Each leaf descends with every autumn

But you and I will find

Our love won't die or be forgotten

And after all is said and done

I'll be the one beside you

I'll be your love and loyal friend

Until the end, beside you

When you and I are gray

When youth has gone and life is dimming

I promise that I'll stay

Beside you, like we were beginning

And after all is said and done

I'll be the one beside you

I'll be your love and loyal friend

Until the end, beside you
