You keep saying you love him I believe that it's true And it just doesn't matter How much I love you But in time you'll understand dear When you shed a tear Then you'll know you were living In your tender years In your eyes there's a love light That shines for him But how long will it stay there Will that love light grow dim You can just see the happiness You can't see the tears Yes it's true you've been living In your tender years So if I can't be your first love I'll wait and be your last I'll be somewhere in your future To help you forget the past Then you'll know that I love you With a love that's sincere 'Cause I'll wait 'til you're through living In your tender years Yes you'll know that I love you With a love that's sincere Yes I'll wait 'til you're through living In your tender years
