| Ah, caught you smiling at me
|
| That’s the way it should be
|
| Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine
|
| Ah, all the good times we had
|
| I sang love songs so glad
|
| Always smiling never sad, so fine
|
| As we walk down the country lanes
|
| I’ll be singing a song, hear me calling your name
|
| Hear the wind within the trees
|
| Telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me
|
| Well, if the sun shines so bright
|
| Or on our way it’s darkest night
|
| The road we choose is always right, so fine
|
| Ah, can your love be so strong
|
| When so many loves go wrong
|
| Will our love go on and on and on and on and on?
|
| As we walk down the country lanes
|
| I’ll be singing a song, hear me calling your name
|
| Hear the wind within the trees
|
| Telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me
|
| My, my
|
| La la la
|
| Come on now, it ain’t too far
|
| Tell your friends all around the world
|
| Ain’t no companion like a blue eyed Merle
|
| Come on now, well, let me tell you
|
| What you’re missing, messin' 'round them brick walls
|
| So of one thing I am sure
|
| It’s a friendship so pure
|
| Angels singing all around my door, so fine
|
| Yeah, ain’t but one thing to do
|
| Spend my natural life with you
|
| You’re the finest dog I knew, so fine
|
| When you’re old and your eyes are dim
|
| There ain’t no old Shep gonna happen again
|
| We’ll still go walking down country lanes
|
| I’ll sing the same old song, hear me call your name |
