Daisy A Day

From My Own Little Corner When I see a picture of my mom and dad together, this song often pops into my mind, as it reminds me so much of them. It is by Hank Snow and to this day I cannot sing it without crying. So this is for mom and dad. I love you.


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 sayin'

Honey has something gone wrong

He remembers the fun and the teasin'

And the reason he wrote her this song



CHORUS

I'll give you a daisy a day dear

I'll give you a daisy a day

I'll love you until the rivers run still

And the four winds we know blow 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 in their eyes

As a kid they would take me for candy

And I'd love to go taggin' along

We'd hold hands while we walked the corner

And the old man would sing her this song



CHORUS

I'll give you a daisy a day dear

I'll give you a daisy a day

I'll love you until the rivers run 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 hill top

And gives her a daisy a day



CHORUS

I'll give you a daisy a day dear

I'll give you a daisy a day

I'll love you until the rivers run still

And the four winds we know blow away
