Lyrics

You are never away
From your home in my heart
There is never a day
When you don’t play a part
In a word that I say
Or a sight that I see
You are never away
And I’ll never be free
You’re the smile on my face
Or a song that I sing
You’re a rainbow I chase
On a morning in spring
You’re a star in the lace
Of a wild willow tree
In the green, leafy lace
Of a wild willow tree
But tonight you’re no star
Nor a song that I sing
In my arms, where you are
You are sweeter than spring
In my arms, where you are
Clinging closely to me
You are lovelier, by far
Than I dreamed you could be
You are lovelier, my darling
Than I dreamed you could be
