by Catherine Chisholm Cushing (1874 - 1952)

L'amour toujours l'amour
Language: English 
Ah, love, you’ve found me at last,
In my heart is a song!
I dreamed of love in the past
I have waited for you so long!

Oh, love everlasting,
Now all my dreams will come true.

Refrain
   L’amour toujours l’amour
   Love, now at last, you’ve found me,
   Hold me and fold me alway,
   Thrill me and fill all my day,
   And weave your spell around me!

   L’amour toujours l’amour!
   Sing to me love’s old, old story,
   Yearning, burning glory,
   L’amour toujours l’amour!

Refrain
