The Same As We Used To Do 1930

You and I quarrelled
some time ago,
How it all started,
I don't know;
Doesn't matter now
who was wrong or right,
for we'll kiss
and make it up tonight.

Let us stroll again
down in lovers' lane
the same as we used to do.
Tender words we'll say
in the old sweet way
the same as we used to do.
The heartaches and sadness
will all be past,
I'll hold you sweetheart
in my arms at last,
and we'll know the bliss
of a goodnight kiss,
the same as we used to do.

So we'll sing love's song
as we stroll along
the same as we used to do.
And when clouds are grey
we will smile each day
the same as we used to do.
The vows that were broken
we soon can mend
No more we'll be parted
until the end,
and tho' years may roll,
hand in hand we'll stroll
the same as we used to do.

Parting and sorrows
All left behind
Sunny tomorrows
We shall find,
Tho' we almost ended
our sweet romance,
'twas mended with
just a tender glance.

Let us stroll again
down in lovers' lane
the same as we used to do.
Tender words we'll say
in the old sweet way
the same as we used to do.
The heartaches and sadness
will all be past,
I'll hold you sweetheart
in my arms at last,
and we'll know the bliss
of a goodnight kiss,
the same as we used to do.

So we'll sing love's song
as we stroll along
the same as we used to do.
And when clouds are grey
we will smile each day
the same as we used to do.
The vows that were broken
we soon can mend
No more we'll be parted
until the end,
and tho' years may roll,
hand in hand we'll stroll
the same as we used to do.
