THE ANNIVERSARY WALTZ

Oh, how we danced
On the night we were wed;
We vowed our true love
Though a word wasn't said.
The world was in bloom,
There were stars in the skies
Except for the few
That were there in your eyes.

Dear, as I held you
So close in my arms,
Angels were singing
A hymn to your charms,
Two hearts gently beating
Were murmuring low,
"My darling, I love you so."

The night seemed to fade
Into blossoming dawn;
The sun shone anew
But the dance lingered on.
Could we but relive that
Sweet moment sublime,
We'd find that our love
Is unaltered by time.

 
 THE SWEET BY and BY
 
 

I put on my dancing shoes today

I got dressed up to go away

Away to be with my friends and family

Those who have gone on way before me

I’ll dance through the stars and clouds on my way

To Heaven above, where I want to stay

Smile and don’t be sad for me

I will always be with you, you’ll see

Just lift your head up and look toward the sky

And always remember

“I’ll see you in the Sweet By and By”
