[A] [D]
You and I will go the same way, and [A] we will live together in [D] hope and love [A] and faith.
[D] No one knows anything about our love, it [F#m] is our own [E] little sweet secret.
[A] No, [Bm] [Em] nothing about our engagement [A]
[F#] is [Bm] published, [E] but some [Bm] are made and informed.
[A] There [D] is a green [G] bench in [D] the ocean, it has been the witness to [A] so many things.
We sat on the bench there [D#] in the [A] ocean, that summer evening when [D] we exchanged rings.
And if the green [G] bench in [D] the ocean could tell what [G] it had seen,
[A#] then [E] the end [C#] of [D] our secret would be, but [A] it has always been here in the bench.
[D]
No, we two have never known enough about [A] being together and [D] having each [F#m] other dear.
[D] Why should, when thousands of people [A] know that we are each other's ideal,
but [B] even so [G] far [Em] we have managed [A] to [F#] be [Bm] in peace, there is still one who [B] knows what [A] happens.
There [D] lives an old man in the moon, and he [Bm] [A] has just received our love.
For from his post in the moon, he has been the witness to [D] so many kisses.
And if the old [G] man in [D] the moon could tell what [G] he had seen,
[D] then [E] the end [C#] of [D] our secret would be, but [A] it has always been here in the bench.
[D]
When we go and drink our luck, then [A] we prefer a [D] secluded and [A] idyllic path.
[D] But we must go home, and when we get there, [E] it will [A] be long until the [E] last [A] little hug.
[B] There is still [Em] one who shares our [A#m] [Bm] secret, [E] one who knows almost everything [B] about us.
[A] There [D] is a brown-haired [G] girl at [D] home, she has probably had many [A] wonders,
and she will probably [D#] never [A] forget how difficult it is [D] to say goodnight.
And if the brown-haired [G] girl at [D] home could tell what [G] she had seen,
[Bm] then [E] the end [C#] of [D] our secret would be, [A] but it has always been here in the bench.
