Lyrics

Time was when we had fun on the school yard swings
When we exchanged graduation rings
One lovely yesterday
Time was when we wrote love letters in the sand
Or lingered over our coffee and
Dreaming the time away
Picnics and hayrides and mid-winter sleigh rides
And never apart
Hikes in the country and there's more than one tree
On which I've a place in your heart
Darling, every tomorrow will be complete
If all our moments are half so sweet
As all our time was then
(Darling, we had fun on the school yard swings
We exchanged graduation rings
One lovely yesterday)
(Time was we wrote love letters in the sand
Lingered over our coffee and
Dreaming the time away)
(Picnics, hayrides, mid-winter sleigh rides
Never apart
Hikes in the country and there's more than one tree
On which I've a place in your heart)
(Darling, each tomorrow will be complete
If our moments are half so sweet
As all our time was then)
