I caught you smiling at me - that's the way it should be
Like a leaf is to a tree
So fine
All the good times we had, I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad
So fine
As we walk down the country lanes I'll be singing a song
You hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me
Well, if the sun shines so bright, or our way is darkest night
The road we choose is always right
So fine
Can any love be so strong when so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on?
As we walk down the country lanes I'll be singing a song
You hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me
My, my la de la come on now it ain't too far
Tell your friends all around the world, ain't no companion like a blue-eyed merle
Come on now, well let me tell you what you're missing messing 'round them brick walls
So, of one thing I am sure - it's a friendship so pure
Angels singing all around my door
So fine
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do - spend my natural life with you
You're the finest gal I knew
So fine
When you're old and your eyes are dim, There ain't no old shep gonna happen again
We'll still go walking down country lanes, I'll sing the same old song
Hear me call your name
