When I Grow Too Old to Dream
Timeless Love: Embracing the Meaning of 'When I Grow Too Old to Dream'
Lyrics
We have been gay, going our way
We have been happy, living our lives
Life has been beautiful, we have been young
Life has been wonderful; we have experienced youth
After you've gone, life will go on
After you've departed, life will continue
Like an old song we have sung
Similar to an old song that we've sung together
When I grow too old to dream
Anticipating a future time when aging prevents dreaming
I'll have you to remember
I will have memories of you to cherish
When I grow too old to dream
Even as I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart
Your love will remain in my heart
So, kiss me my sweet
As we part, give me a farewell kiss
And so let us part
Accepting the inevitable separation
And when I grow too old to dream
Reiterating the idea that in old age, dreaming may diminish
That kiss will live in my heart
The memory of the farewell kiss will endure in my heart
And when I grow too old to dream
Continuing the theme of aging and the lasting impact of love
That kiss will live in my heart
Emphasizing the enduring nature of the farewell kiss
So, kiss me my sweet
Once again, requesting a farewell kiss as we part
And so let us part
Accepting the necessity of parting and saying goodbye
And when I grow too old to dream
Reiterating that the memory of the farewell kiss will persist even in old age
That kiss will live in my heart
Affirming that the impact of the kiss will endure in the heart despite aging
