Oh I Love the ground She walked upon and the air she would softly breathe

..........( bass)................................

The Feather touch of her gentle lips. That only a fool could leave.

That only a Fool Could Leave.

But we tasted forbidden wine

...............(..bass) ......

Though I loved the ground she walked upon .

I could never have made her mine

The Swallows Fly all along the canal and I watch with a heavy heart.

In Dizzy spins they dive and wheel

touch wings and then depart.

Touch wings and then depart.

As the summer fades away.

Though I loved the ground she walked upon

I knew that I could not stay.

The Swallow is a summer child and she flies before the cold.

Though I loved the ground she walked upon

She was not mine to hold.

She was not mine to hold.

But it was easy to pretend.

Though I loved the ground She walked upon.

A Summer has to end

A summer has to end..
