(If I had to choose just one day)
|
|
If I had to choose just one day
|
To last my whole life through
|
It would surely be that Sunday
|
The day that I met you
|
|
Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills
|
Summer was a-coming in but fast
|
Lots of daffodils were showing off their skills
|
Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper
|
"Go on, kiss her, go on and kiss her"
|
|
If I had to choose one moment
|
To live within my heart
|
It would be that tender moment
|
Recalling how we started
|
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me
|
That way, that Sunday, that summer
|
