Through the long days of summer Where the air was as sweet as perfume We walked through the golden meadows And danced by the light of the moon
She was a lonely angel Sitting there by the side of the road On the edge of the forest That's where the wild things grow
And blue skies of promise opened before us There in her eyes held the dreams of the world Blue skies of promise rained down upon us Life is so sweet with a Strawberry Girl
In her hand was a basket Sticks and branches were woven as one She smiled bright like a child Bright as the afternoon sun
[ Blackmore's Night Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] It was filled with her treasures A whole cradle of nature's bounty Wild flowers were chosen To lay amongst forest berries
And blue skies of promise opened before us There in her eyes held the dreams of the world Blue skies of promise rained down upon us Life is so sweet with a Strawberry Girl
"It's a great day for a gatherer You can say that I told you so In these uncertain days It's the simple things you need the most"
And blue skies of promise opened before us There in her eyes held the dreams of the world Blue skies of promise rained down upon us Life is so sweet with a Strawberry Girl (2x)
