We Danced and Played
Long ago there was a girl;
She was my age;
We danced and played.
Many years hence over bridges
We went together hand-in-hand;
We danced and played.
Close and tight we spent our
Days loving each other
Wishing our love would stay;
We danced and played.
In the sight of God, we vowed
And prayed for Him to bless us
On our way;
We danced and played.
My every joy in her I found,
Her beauty deep within me bound;
We danced and played.
As days grew older,
And her hair grew gray,
We spent our last hour together to pray.
Across the bridge she said she’ll wait
Till in her arms we shall be
Together for all eternity.
