Words and Music by Jud Strunk
He remembers the first time he met `er
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 singin
`
Honey has somethin` gone wrong
He remembers the fun and the teasin
`
And the reason he wrote `er this song
CHORUS
I`ll give you a daisy a day
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 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 eye
As a kid they would take me for candy
And I loved to go taggin` along
We`d hold hands while we walked to the corner
And the old man would sing `er his song
CHORUS
Now he walks down the street in the evenin
`
And he stops by the old candy store
And I somehow believe he`s believin
`
He`s holdin` `er 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
CHORUS
