Lyrics
If ever we are married I’ll never pretend
To any dream of any greater glory
Than just to be your husband
Your lover, your friend
And live with you an old and simple story
Refrain:
An ordinary couple
Is all we’ll ever be
For all I want of living
Is to keep you close to me
To laugh and weep together
While time goes on its flight
To kiss you every morning
And to kiss you every night
We’ll meet our daily problems
And rest when day is done
Our arms around each other
In the fading sun
An ordinary couple
Across the years we’ll ride
Our arms around each other
And our children by our side
Our arms around each other
