MY DARLING - DAN HOLLINRAKE (LYRICS)
VERSE ONE
Good morning, my darling
It's lovely to meet you again
Allow me to introduce myself
Do you remember when?
We were married
Had five children
And the songs you'd sing to them
Are the same songs that you sing today
We drove the busses, marched the band
Owned the pub, ran the chip van
You're my best friend in the best kind of way
CHORUS
Now you might not remember my name
But my darling I've learnt that's okay
'Cause I get to tell you I love you for the first time all over again
And I know things they can never be the same
But my darling I swear that's okay
Cause I get to tell you I love you for the first time all over again
VERSE TWO
Good evening, my darling
It's a pleasure to spend time with you
Can I ask you one thing
Will you sing to me, just like you used to?
You'd sing songs from our childhood
In a way only you could
As you danced around the empty living room
'Cause if there's one thing you remember
It's that Elvis sang it better
Singing 'Can't help falling in love with you'
CHORUS
Now you might not remember my face
But my darling I've learnt that okay
'Cause I get to tell you I love you for the first time all over again
And I know things they can never be the same
But my darling I swear that's okay
'Cause I get to tell you I love you for the first time all over again
BRIDGE
It's time to face facts
What will be will be
I'm just honoured that you spent your life with me
What a beautiful life it's been
The sun's going in
We're lost in the shade
But our love is the kind that can never fade
My mind is lost in the memories we made
OUTRO
So goodnight, my darling
