A Daisy A Day

Jim Nabors


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 somethin gone wrong? 
He remembers the fun and the teasin 
And the reason he wrote her this song 

Ill give you a daisy a day, dear 
Ill give you a daisy a day 
Ill love you until the river runs still 
And the four winds we know blow away 

They would walk down the street in the evenin 
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 of their eyes

As a kid they would take me for candy 
And I loved to go taggin along 
Wed hold hands as we walked to the corner 
And the old man would sing her his song 

Ill give you a daisy a day, dear 
Ill give you a daisy a day 
Ill love you unti-il the river run still 
And the four winds we know blow away 

Now he walks down the street in the evenin 
And he stops by the old candy store 
And I somehow believe hes believin 
Hes 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 hilltop 
And gives her a daisy a day 

Ill give you a daisy a day, dear 
Ill give you a daisy a day 
Ill love you until the river runs still 
And the four winds we know blow a-way...
