Judy Collins - Bard Of My Heart Lyrics
The summer was sweet and the flowers were bloomingThe wind was as gentle and sweet as a kissThe great northern lights danced above us till morningThe stars were like diamonds, we each made our wishThe mountains were green and they climbed to the heavensThe rivers ran sparkling down to the seaYour laugh like a bell filled my heart with such gladnessOur songs they were happy, our voices were freeWe built a green bower of willows and rosesSang of our pleasures and sang of our woesHow could we have known this would be your last summerHow precious the bower, how precious the roseThe world without you has gone dark as the winterThe sounds of the river are frozen and stillThe lark has grown silent, the stars have no lusterBut I'll live through this darkness, I know that I willI know I will find you among the bright flowersWe'll walk in the rain and we'll dance in the windWe'll build a green bower and fish all the riversWe'll watch the stars fall and we'll smile once againI still love you more than the earth and its beautiesYou are all my seasons, we never shall partFor though I have lost you, you live on foreverOh, joy of my future, oh child of my heart
