The Old Tweed Coat

He had a warmth in his eyes She had a song in her heart The most indelible kind Right from the start Two worlds would collide Hearts would beat like a drum In that old tweed coat was love Only love Only love A lonely love He'd come from miles and miles Over mountains he'd ride No journey too long Just to be by her side Their hands entwine as they walk on the shore In that old tweed coat was more Only love Only love Only love Only love Time and the years, laughter and tears Gone with the wind and the rain Boy from the hills, too soon to be still Now they have come to carry him home Their lives had been one, but now they're apart But the words in that coat, next to his heart They spoke of his love, which still remained For that old tweed coat contained Only love Only love A lonely love Only love A lonely love Only love A lonely love Only love
