🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Take me into your loving arms
  • Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
  • Place your head on my beating heart
  • I'm thinking out loud

Sing the opening verse

  • Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?
  • And, darling, I will
  • Be loving you 'til we're 70
