Catriona O'Donovan - Love Me When I'm Old

Two lovers they were walking hand, in hand.
The maiden wore a shiny, wedding band;
She said my love, "You've won my heart, and soul.
So promise that, you'll love me when I'm old."

Chorus:

Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old,
When dark clouds gather 'round and nights are cold;
And say you'll never trade our love for gold,
Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old.

He kissed her lips and touched her golden hair,
Then looked upon her face so young and fair;
He held her gently to his loving heart,
Saying, only God alone could make us part.

Chorus:

Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old,
When dark clouds gather 'round and nights are cold;
And say you'll never trade our love for gold,
Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old.

They lived for many years as man and wife,
With several kids to grace thier happy life;
Sometimes the clouds were dark and nights were cold,
Some how thier love was strong as they grew old.

Chorus:

Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old,
When dark clouds gather 'round and nights are cold;
And say you'll never trade our love for gold,
Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old.
Darling, say you'll love me when I'm old.
