Oh hello my mourning dove
THE sunshine sends HER song to greet me
All my heart had lent to love
Has now returned to me completely
Her smile of me a martyr's made and I am sweetly slain
And at the very sight of her all my gray skies roll away
For her grace, I'll give each kiss a name
And I'll give each touch a voice to say
Oh hello my mourning dove
The sunshine sends her song to greet me
All my heart had lent to love
Has now returned to me completely
Oh, how I love her so
With her faintest touch a tempest crush has laden love upon me
Because hers are the only arms whose embrace so tenderly disarms me
For her grace, I'll give each kiss a name
And I'll give each touch a voice to say
When she's away my heart and song so yearn
To serenade her sweet return by singing
