I see my darling in each spray of summer sunlight
I see my darling in the leaves that fall
I see him walking in the rainy April sadness
And I hear his name in every bird call
I told the possum in the gumtree
The rattle on the ground
Told everyone but my darling
Of this happiness I found
My heart would cry more
Than the weeping willow tree
If my darling and his heart were not for me
I see my darling
In every spray of summer sunlight
I see my darling
In the leaves that fall
I see him walking in the rainy April sadness
And I hear his name in every bluebird call
I told the possum in the gumtree
The rattle on the ground
Told everyone but my darling
Of this happiness I found
My heart would cry more
Than the weeping willow tree
If my darling and his heart were not for me
If my darling and his heart were not for me
