Verse
She was standing in the clearing, her dress down to her knees
With the daisies all around her, that swayed like Heaven s trees
The breeze hit like a whisper, the sun shed light on her face
And thatâs when my heart told me, I would never forget this place

- - - - (x2)
I was sitting on the hillside, as I watched my girl in blue
Her figure like a portrait that someone perfect drew
Well I broke free from my rapture as she began to sing
And swaying with the daisies, she moved just like a dream
Chorus:
So Dance my little darling, oh won t you dance for me
Letâs take this day together, as far as we can see

Verse
I keep on walking backwards, on all these one way streets
and past these picket fences and charming well kept trees
Well I look over my shoulder, my girl in blue is still there
Just clinging to the daisies and to these hopes and prayers
Chorus:
So dance my little darling, oh won t you dance for me
Letâs take this day together, as far as we can see
Dance my little darling, oh won t you dance for me
Letâs take this day together, as far as we can see
Oh, letâs take this day together, as far as we can see
