from the cradle to the grave a love to desire and crave


I'll laugh for you, and I'll dance for you
but don't ask me to shed any tears when I have to go
you are a joy and a pleasure to love and to hold
your promise is as pure as the driven snow
passing ships in the night a touch distraught and light
eyes that brightly shine, your love tonight is minethe cradle
