One Morning In May

It was early one morning, one morning in May
I was down by the river, walking my way
I was lookin' behind me, behind all the flowers
An old man, he stood laughing and smiling for hours
It was early one morning in May

See how she smiles
After oh, so many miles a flowerdress

He took my hand softly like I knew only he would
And I knew I would love him like I knew only I could
And the time passed that morning and many days after
I can still feel him touch me and I can still hear his laughter
It was early one morning in May

I'll have to go
So goodbye my love and know I'll be missing you

But one night in September he stood there before me
And then he went softly and I knew it was forever
When I walked down to that river, that river where I met him
I can still see his face now and I know I can't forget him
It was early one morning in May

I'll have to go
So goodbye my love and know I'll be missing you

But one night in September he stood there before me
And then he went softly and I knew it was forever
When I walked down to that river, that river where I met him
I can still see his face now and I know I can't forget him
It was early one morning in May

It was early one morning in May
