He remembers the first time he met her
He remembers the first thing she said
He remembers the first time he held her
And the night that she came to his bed
He remembers her sweet way of saying,
Honey, has something gone wrong?
He remembers the fun and the teasing
And the reason he wrote her this song
I'll give you a daisy a day, dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I love you until the river runs still
And the four winds we know go away
They would walk down the
street in the evening
And for years I would see them go by
And their love that was more than
the clothes that they wore
Could be seen in the gleam of their eyes
As a kid they would take me for candy
And I loved to go tagging along
We'd hold hands as we
walked to the corner
The old man would sing her his song
I'll give you a daisy a day,
I'll give you a daisy a day,
I'll love you until the river runs still,
And the four winds we know
blow away.
Now he walks down the
street in the evening,
And he stops by the
old candy store,
And I somehow believe he's believin'
he's holdin' her hand like before.
For he feels all her love walkin' with him,
and he smiles at the things she might say.
Then the old man walks up to the hilltop
And gives her a daisy a day
I'll give you a daisy a day,
dear I'll give you a daisy a day
I love you until the river runs still,
And the four winds we know blow away.
