[Male Baritone]
It was nineteen sixty-two
Snow was falling cold and blue
Maury’s bar was loud that night
As I walked in, I saw her there
Golden light upon her hair
She was eating an apple--It didn’t look right
I walked up and asked her why
She just laughed and caught my eye
While the jukebox played a lovely tune
That was when I came to know
How fast my love for her did grow
I felt that I could marry her soon
[Female Alto]
I liked the way he smiled
Kind and easy, warm and mild
But my roommate shook her head
“There’s a bad boy story being said.”
I’d like to know what he hid
For three weeks, I wondered what he did
After many calls, he set things right
He turned my dark thoughts into light
There were several guys in our town
Funny how a wrong guy mix-up
Nearly stopped our whole life’s script up
Before the hand of fate could lay it down
[Four-part harmony]
Oh, the girl with that apple
And the boy who took a chance
Two young hearts in wintertime
Starting their forever dance
Through the years and all the miles
Through the laughter and the tears
Love kept them side by side
For sixty golden years
[Male Baritone]
Christmas came, and plans went wrong
Pneumonia came along
She was laid up in the college infirmary
I gave her flowers and my time
And prayed that someday she’d be mine
Though love was young and fragile as could be
[Female Alto]
Then, before the old year’s end
And the new year rolling in
We made up for the dates we’d missed
Dinner, hockey, and dancing too
Three dates before the night was through
Before the clock struck twelve, we managed to kiss
[Male baritone]
Oh, the girl eating an apple
And the boy who crossed the room
Found a love that kept on growing
Like wildflowers in bloom
[Female Soprano]
And the years flowed by like rivers
And, our hearts beat strong and true
Here’s to love at first sight, darling
And a lifetime loving you
[Four-Part harmony]
Oh, the girl eating an apple
And the boy who took a chance
Two young hearts in wintertime
Starting their forever dance
Through the years and all the miles
Through the laughter and the tears
Love kept them side by side
For sixty golden years
Now every June, they hold each other
Like they did so long ago
Similar to the college dreamers
With a timeless kind of love
