I Heard The Bluebirds Sing

[Intro]          [Verse 1] I met a girl out in the hills who gave my lonely heart a thrill Her beauty seemed just like a breath of spring And when I looked into her eyes I thought of bluish summer skies And when I held her hand in mine I heard the bluebirds sing. [Chorus 1] They sang of wondering (Wondering if you love her) Will she marry  (Marry if you’ll ask her) Will their hearts beat (Hearts beat close together} for now and ever-more And when she’s lonely (Lonely is he near her} When there’s sadness (Sadness will he cheer her) Will they always (Always be together) Until the end of time [Verse 2] I courted her for months on end until she promised we would wed She said that we’d be married in the spring All through the long cold winter months I thought the spring would never come And every gloomy winter day I heard the bluebirds sing. [Chorus 2] They sang of waiting (Waiting for the flowers) And I’m counting (Counting every hour) Till the bluebird (Bluebird brings the springtime) Into the world once more And while we’re waiting  (Waiting for the sunshine) We keep hating  (Hating every storm-cloud) That has gathered  (Gathered o’er the mountains) To keep us far apart. [Interlude]                 [Verse 3] And when at last spring touched the earth We were married in the village church Our wedding seemed just like a dream come true Tho many years have come and gone Our love is still as true and strong As when I found her long ago and still the bluebird sings. [Chorus 3] They sang of loving  (Loving every hour) That we’re married  (Married to each other) We’ll be happy (Happy ever after) As since the day we met And though we’re older  (Older love is sweeter) We grow fonder  (Fonder of each other) We’ll be sweethearts (Happy as the bluebirds) Until the end of time.
