Words & Music by Don McLean
|
|
No-one can take your place with me,
|
And time has proven that I'm right.
|
There's no place I'd rather be,
|
Than at your place for the night.
|
|
No time can pass your sight unseen.
|
No moment steals away unfound.
|
Lifetime lived in such a dream,
|
Floats like a feather to the ground.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
And for the first time I've been seeing
|
The things I'd never notice, without you.
|
And for the first time I'm discovering
|
The things I used to treasure, about you.
|
|
The birds like leaves on Winterwood,
|
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days.
|
They've learned to live life as they should.
|
They are at peace with natures ways.
|
|
You are as natural as the night,
|
And all that springs from you is good.
|
And the children born beneath your light,
|
Are like the birds on Winterwood.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
