The dawn shines her light
|
To scare off the night
|
And the sun from his slumber is woken
|
The bells are ringing out
|
As the town crier shouts
|
Words too strong to be spoken
|
|
There's a rumble in the ground
|
And the air fills with sound
|
Trumpets in the wind are a' blowing
|
The townsfolk peep
|
Through the curtains of sleep
|
To the sound of the cocks all a' crowin
|
|
The winds may blow
|
Come rain, come slow
|
Today's for you and me
|
I gave my heart to you my love
|
You gave your heart to me
|
|
The sun wears a smile
|
And the clock winks its dial
|
The clouds in the sky are unfolding
|
The birds on the wing
|
Like angels they sing
|
The heavens are glowing all golden
|
|
The crowds all spill out
|
They cheer and they shout
|
Banners and flags are a' waving
|
The flowers all a' bloom
|
Blow kisses to the moon
|
As blossom falls on the paving
|
|
The wind may blow
|
Come rain, come snow
|
Today's for you and me
|
I gave my heart to you my love
|
You gave your heart to me
|
|
The whole world roars
|
A chorus of applause
|
Strangers from Delhi to Dublin
|
Are swept off their feet
|
As they kiss on the street
|
And the waters like champaigne are bubbling
|
|
The wind may blow
|
Come rain, come snow
|
Today's for you and me
|
I gave my heart to you my love
|
You gave your heart to me
|
