I Think of You

I love to see the wild flowers blooming

And wonder why they seem so plain

Springtime rides all the brown hills open

Young birds sing in the silver rain

I think of you as the night rolls by

You're on my mind the whole night through

And far away in the lonesome city

All the time you're gone, I think of you

When my world has turned to sunlight

And the dust clouds stand in the summer sky

I'll number all the climbing roses

And watch to see the milkweed fly

I think of you as the night rolls by

You're on my mind the whole night through

And far away in the lonesome city

All the time you're gone, I think of you

And when I hear the soft wind moaning

Like an angel's voice from a far off shore

My day's slip by like light snow falling

On the dry brown leaves blown by my door

I think of you as the night rolls by

You're on my mind the whole night through

And far away in the lonesome city

All the time you're gone, I think of you

All the time you're gone, I think of you
