The Twelfth of Never

You ask how much I need you

Must I explain

I need you, oh, my darling

Like roses need rain

You ask how long I'll love you

I'll tell you true

Until the twelfth of never

I'll still be loving you

Hold me close

Never let me go

Hold me close

Melt my heart like April snow

I'll love you

Till the bluebells forget to bloom

I'll love you

Till the clover has lost it's perfume

I'll love you

Till the poets run out of rhyme

Until the twelfth of never

And that's a long, long time

Until the twelfth of never

And that's a long long time

That's a long, long time
