Darling,
how I've always longed to say
that love has come my way,
now that happy day is here;
Darling,
I have often tried to speak
but words are poor and meek,
music makes it clear.

I'll sing a song of love to you,
my words are old. but always new,
it's the only thing I dare to do,
for I dare not tell you how I need you!
The tender love I bring to you
dwells in the song I sing to you.
And my heart will always cling to you
to the Paradise of love I'll leave you.
Words are poor but music's tender
it will make your heart surrender!
That's why I sing this song to you.
It tells you I belong to you
who knows better than the stars above
what I put into my song of love!

I'll sing a song of love to you,
my words are old. but always new,
it's the only thing I dare to do,
for I dare not tell you how I need you!
The tender love I bring to you
dwells in the song I sing to you.
And my heart will always cling to you
to the Paradise of love I'll leave you.
Words are poor but music's tender
it will make your heart surrender!
That's why I sing this song to you.
It tells you I belong to you
who knows better than the stars above
what I put into my song of love!

Darling,
listen to my simple tune,
you'll understand me soon,
there's little I dare to ask;
Darling,
if these words and melody
stay in your memory.
They've fulfilled their task.

I'll sing a song of love to you,
my words are old. but always new,
it's the only thing I dare to do,
for I dare not tell you how I need you!
The tender love I bring to you
dwells in the song I sing to you.
And my heart will always cling to you
to the Paradise of love I'll leave you.
Words are poor but music's tender
it will make your heart surrender!
That's why I sing this song to you.
It tells you I belong to you
who knows better than the stars above
what I put into my song of love!

I'll sing a song of love to you,
my words are old. but always new,
it's the only thing I dare to do,
for I dare not tell you how I need you!
The tender love I bring to you
dwells in the song I sing to you.
And my heart will always cling to you
to the Paradise of love I'll leave you.
Words are poor but music's tender
it will make your heart surrender!
That's why I sing this song to you.
It tells you I belong to you
who knows better than the stars above
what I put into my song of love!
