Your Love Is Like A Flower

           G                    C 
1. It was long, long ago in the moonlight, 
          G                          D7 
We were sitting on the banks of the stream, 
          G                          C 
When you whispered so sweetly, “I love you.” 
        G     D7          G 
As the waters murmured a tune. 
 
                 G                          C 
Chorus: Oh they tell me your love’s like a flower, 
        G                          D7 
In the spring time it blossoms so fair; 
        G                    C 
In the cold wind it withers away dear, 
          G                  D7           G 
And they tell me that’s the way of your love.

2. I remember the night, little darling, 
We were talking of days gone by; 
When you told me you always would love me, 
And your love for me would never die. 
 
Chorus: Oh they tell me your love’s like a flower,…

3. It was spring when you whispered these words, dear, 
The flowers were all blooming so fair; 
But today as the snow falls around me, 
I can see that your love isn’t there.
