One day we walked along the sand
one day in early spring . . .
You held a piper in your hand
to mend it's broken wing
Now, I'll remember many a day an' many a lonely mile
The echo of a piper's song
an' the shadow of a smile!

The shadow of your smile
when you are gone . . .
will color all my dreams and light the dawn . . .
Look into my eyes, my love,
And see all the lovely things you are . . .
You are to me!

Our wistful little star was far too high . . .
A teardrop kissed your lips and so did I . . .
Now, when I remember spring,
All the joy that love can bring . . .
I will be remembering, the shadow of your smile!

Now, when I remember spring,
All the joy that love can bring . . .
I will be remembering, the shadow of your smile!
