When I Grow Too Old to Dream
Timeless Love: Cherishing Memories in '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
Our lives have been filled with beauty and youth
After you've gone, life will go on
After you're no longer with me, 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 time when I become too old to dream
I'll have you to remember
I will cherish the memories of you
When I grow too old to dream
Even as I age and can no longer dream
Your love will live in my heart
Your love will remain in my heart
So, kiss me my sweet
Expressing affection with a kiss before parting
And so let us part
Accepting the inevitability of parting
And when I grow too old to dream
Reiterating the idea that as I age, the memories of our love will endure
That kiss will live in my heart
The kiss shared will hold a special place in my heart
And when I grow too old to dream
Emphasizing the enduring nature of the kiss in my heart as I grow old
That kiss will live in my heart
Repeating the sentiment that the kiss will remain in my heart as I age
So, kiss me my sweet
Repeating the farewell with a sweet kiss before parting
And so let us part
Reaffirming the acceptance of parting as an inevitable aspect of life
And when I grow too old to dream
Echoing the idea that the memories of the kiss will endure despite growing old
That kiss will live in my heart
Stressing once again that the kiss will continue to live in my heart as I age
