One, two... one,
two, three, four
Sweet and high at the
break of dawn
Simple tune that you can hum along too
I remember there was a time
When I used to sing for you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do
I used to sing for you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do
Knew all the words to
the popular songs
With the radio on full volume
I remember there was a time
When I used to sing for you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do
I used to sing for you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do
Forget the chorus,
you're the bridge
The words and music to everyday I've lived
There's nothing, I wouldn't give
For one more time, when I can sing for you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do
Oh Yeah
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do
Soft and low when the
evening comes
Holding you, sleeping in my arms
I remember there was a time
When I used to sing for you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do
I used to sing for
you
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do
I used to sing for
you.
