Tender Years lyrics

You keep saying you love him I believe that it's true And it just doesn't matter How much I love you But in time you'll understand, dear When you shed a tear Then you'll know you were living In your tender years In your eyes there's a lovelight That shines for him But how long will it stay there Will that lovelight grow dim You can just see the happiness You can't see the tears Yes it's true, you've been living In your tender years So if I can't be your first love I'll wait and be your last I'll be somewhere in your future To help you forget the past Then you'll know that I love you With a love that's sincere 'Cause I'll wait 'til you're thru living In your tender years Yes, you'll know that I love you With a love that's sincere Yes, I'll wait 'til you're thru living In your tender years
