Declaration    words by John Shaw Neilson/ Tune Wyndham-Read

I will love you ‘till the birds have lost their way to sing

Until there is no tenderness all in the face of Spring

And I will love you ‘till a babe will neither laugh or cry

Till men no more are wanderers and women tears are dry

And I will love you ‘till the trees see neither sun nor rain

‘Till morning holds no mystery and love will feel no pain

And I will love you ‘till there be no grace in hearts of men

‘Till a girls eyes will glow no love I’ll love you until then.
