I sit on these steps With my old Mandolin

And I lay my song

In the arms of the wind

And it drifts over the hills

And the valleys to find

A way to the heart

Of the true love of mine



CHORUS

And I'd sing you back home if I could

If these words had wings

Heaven knows that I would

I'd reach in my heart for an old melody

And I'd sing you back home to me



They say the chane of true love

Comes but once in a life time

And if thats is the truth

I guess I've had mine

As the silvery moon

Sails on through the clouds

The beams sadly fall

on this lonely old house



CHORUS
