Tender Years

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's shinning 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
It's true cause you're 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
And you'll know that I love you
With love that is sincere
Cause I'll wait till you're true living
In your tender years

And you'll know that I love you
With love that is sincere
Cause I'll wait till you're true living
In your tender years (Tender years)
