Now And Then

They’ve passed me by, many years
And I did turn well away
To give and lose love
And still no word had I to say
Not to anyone
Now I see
How I could speak honestly
But when you’re gone
Perhaps you’ll long to be free
I do know
When it is
That I must go
For you can think of love
Wandering far from you
Or of a warm heart
Wishing well and loving you
I do believe
The way is
To live
I have loved many
And you have, too
But with the strength of the young
This love has memories
They are worth to be sung
