Your hair in the wind puts asunder All the cares this world has to give And the lights in your eyes bring such wonder To a man who thought all had been seen
Though the nights have been cold and unkind, dear Oh that smile on your face is marigold That blooms in the springtime for lovers anew Just like the day I found you
So I wrote you this song, though in vain dear For no lyric or rhyme can contain All the gladness you bring to the saddest of days Oh my love, how I yearn for you now
Though the days have grown long in our wanting And the distance between us remains There's a gleaming of light up ahead, dear Yes, the sun will shine after the rain
Oh the laughter we'll share will be endless As we're dancing beneath the moonlight And your hand is in mine with our fingers entwined Oh love, now, how soon it shall be
Though the waiting it seems never ending And the hours they, pass without haste There will soon come a day when the snow melts away And my love will be right by my side
So you see, dear, my heart will not falter And my hopes will be not satisfied Till the miles have been left far behind And no distance between us resides.
