Lyrics I Heard You Singing - Eric Coates , Stuart Burrows

I heard you singing when the dawn was grey,
And silver dew on every blossom lay.
And though the rising sun to soon drank up the dew,
I thought I heard you singing all the long day through
All the long day through.

I heard you singing in the silent hour
When evening came with sleep for bird, and flow'r
A song like happy murmuring of woodland streams
I thought i heard you singing down the vale of dreams
Down the vale of dreams.

Beloved, when the last call echoes clear
And I must part from all that is so dear
I shall not fear the valley that before me lies
If I may hear you singing as I close my eyes
As I close my eyes.
