Текст песни As Happy as We Were - Daniel O'Donnell

The old man stood outside the church door
As the young bride and groom made their way
Walking out into the sunlight
Starting along life's highway
He went over and kissed her and told her
May your lives be happy and long
And may you get all the riches and joys you deserve
As the times and the years they move on

Then the old man walked into the churchyard
And stopped, by an old chestnut tree
There sleeps the woman he trusted and loved
And these are the words he did say

Let them be as happy as we were
And I know you're as proud as can be
For when he took her hand at the altar
Through her eyes I saw you and me

From the day she was born you had taught her
The difference between right and wrong
To enjoy and respect, the treasures of life
And always be proud and strong
Well today she looked like an angel
With her two eyes of pale misty blue
And her white satin dress and beautiful smile
Oh how She reminds me of you

Let them be as happy as we were
And I know you're as proud as can be
For when he took her hand at the altar
Through her eyes I saw you and me

Let them be as happy as we were
And I know you're as proud as can be
For when he took her hand at the altar
Through her eyes I saw you and me

Yes when he took her hand at the altar
Through her eyes I saw you and me
