  1. Song of my Heart

    “My lady love has eyes of blue”

    Share Share Post
    My lady love has eyes of blue
    Like violets kissed by Summer dew,
    Her dimpled cheek and loving smile,
    Will always make my life worth while
    Ch.
    Love of my heart, love of my heart,
    Sweetest flower I ever knew,
    with the setting sun when the day is done.
    How my thoughts wander to you.
    Though you're far away, how I always pray, That in sunshine and love life may hold you
