Smile for me, my lady, won't you let the sunlight shine
Upon your face in the morning when I'm still yawning?
Sitting in the garden, playing with the children, laughing
And the games that you're playing, words that you're saying
Echo on through the day

Working through the daytime, my thoughts are all on her
The day, it seems to turn so slow
I want to get back home to my lady, lady
Walk along the riverside, watch the day go through
I think of all the things to say
When I get back home to my lady, lady

Smile for me, my lady, won't you let the sunlight shine
Upon your face in the morning when I'm still yawning?
Sitting in the garden, playing with the children, laughing
And the games that you're playing, words that you're saying
Echo on through the day

I'm working through the daytime, my thoughts are all on her
The day, it seems to turn so slow
I want to get back home to my lady, lady
Walk along the riverside, watch the day go through
I think of all the things to say
When I get back home to my lady, lady, my lady
Lady, to my lady, to my lady, to my lady
To my lady, lady, to my lady, lady, to my lady
