Kiss me each morning for a million years,
Hold me each evening by your side,
Tell me you love me, for a million years,
Then if it don't work out, then if it don't work out,
Then you can tell me goodbye!

Sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss,
Soften my dreams with a sigh,
After you've loved me for a million years,
Then if it don't work out, then if it don't work out,
Then you can tell me goodbye!

If you must go, I won't grieve,
If you just wait a lifetime before you leave.
If you must go, I won't say no,
Just so we can say that we tried,
Tell me you love me for a million years,
Then if it don't work out, then if it don't work out,
Then you can tell me goodbye!

Then you can tell me goodbye . . .

Vocal by Eddy Arnold

"I'll kiss you and hold you and love you for a million years and then . . . if we have to go back to the drawing board, we can do that, but until then . . . oh baby, you're mine".

I do believe that's what he would say to her, in addition to the words to the song.
