[Verse 1] When my love walks down the street People stop and stare People stop and stare She often starts laughing Out from the curls of her long hair Out from the curls of her long hair
[Verse 2] She's shy like a rainbow But what she knows But what she knows She keeps most things deep down inside Where they never show, where they never show Where they never show, where they never show
[Verse 3] Her eyes speak of sorrow Of time gone by Of time gone by But when she smiles they sparkle Like a dancing sun When the water's wide, when the water's wide When the water's wide
[Verse 4] She has words to tell me How much she cares How much she cares But the only word she ever says is I'll be there, I'll be there I'll be there, I'll be there
[Verse 5] But when I'm [?] by myself And I'm all alone Far from home I'd wonder what she's thinking of By the time is gone, by the time is gone By the time is gone
[Verse 6] And I start my mind a-thinking Of how it was Of how it was And I know I'll soon be seeing her The one I love, the one I love The one I love, I'm thinking of
[Verse 7] And I set my night to resting And my worried sleep And my worried sleep She would've loved me when the dawn breaks When the shadows fly When the shadows flee
[Outro] Yes, she loved me when the dawn breaks When the shadows fly When the shadows flee 'Til I am free
