[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
