"The Anniversary Song"
Ivanovici Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 close in my arms
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms
Two hearts gently beating, murmuring low
"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 recall that sweet moment sublime
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time

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 recall that sweet moment sublime
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time
