Lyrics
- I met my sweetheart when I was a kid
We sat together at school
She’s still my sweetheart but things that I did
Have shown me that I was a fool
Chorus
I loved her then, I love her now
That old sweetheart of mine
Her eyes were blue, her love was true
That old sweetheart of mine
A real good gal, she was my pal
Tho’ it would rain or shine
I love her yet, I can’t forget
That old sweetheart of mine
- We have grown older, my sweetheart and I
I love her tho’ we’re apart
Friends try to tell me that I should not sigh
But she still remains in my heart
