Oh, you were smiling
Though through all the years
You'd been crying
Your lullabies
To the dark night
All alone

And I could see
By the light in your eyes
That we were drifting
On the stream of goodbyes
The dream has gone
But in your face I see
The light of a dawn

Falling now
Is the gentle rain
On your black hair and
Pretty face
Oh my love

Oh you sweet madness of summertime
Floating by on the breezes, oh love
Smile at me now and I'll wish you all of my
Long lonely life

You, I see you there
With your head held high
And the ribbons in your hair
And I want to grow old here
With you

You float away from me
And all I can see
Is you
My love
