One day we walked along the sand

one day in early spring . . .

You held a piper in your hand

to mend it's broken wing

Now, I'll remember many a day

an' many a lonely mile

The echo of a piper's song

an' the shadow of a smile!



The shadow of your smile

when you are gone . . .

will color all my dreams

and light the dawn . . .

Look into my eyes, my love, and see

all the lovely things you are . . . you are to me!



Our wistful little star

was far too high . . .

A teardrop kissed your lips

and so did I . . .

Now, when I remember spring,

all the joy that love can bring . . .

I will be remembering,

the shadow of your smile!







Now, when I remember spring,

all the joy that love can bring . . .

I will be remembering,

the shadow of your smile!
