Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 50
YOU ARE MY SWEETHEART.
Copyright, MDCCCXCV, by Henry J. Wehman.
Words by Harry S. Marion. Music by J. P. Mullen.
Two little sweethearts, coming from school one day-
Shyly he told her, in a boyish way:
"When I am older, I'll ask you to marry me;
I'll watch o'er And guide you wherever you on, and no harm shall come to thee
Chorus.
"You are my sweetheart, I will love you ever;
Whatever troubles you may have, we will share together.
When I'm a man I will marry you, then we'll never part;
There's nothing too good in this world for you, my own sweetheart."
Years have rolled onward, journeying on through life;
These little sweethearts now are man and wife,
Two little children, running around at play,
Often remind him of schoolboy days, when to his sweetheart he'd say:- Cho.
