Anniversary

Jem Finer

The dawn shines her light to scare off the night

The sun from his slumber is woken

And the bells are ringing out as the town crier shouts

Words too strong to be spoken

There's a rumble in the ground and the air fills with sound

Trumpets in the wind are a blowing

And the townsfolk peep through the curtains of sleep

To the sound of the cocks all a crowin'

The winds may blow

Come rain, come snow

Today's for you and me

I gave my heart to you my love

You gave your heart to me

The sun wears a smile and the clock winks its dial

Clouds in the sky are unfolding

And the birds on the wing like angels they sing

The heavens are glowing all golden

The crowds all spill out, they cheer and they shout

Banners and flags are a waving

And the flowers all a bloom, blow kisses to the moon

As blossom falls on the paving

The winds may blow

Come rain, come snow

Today's for you and me

I gave my heart to you my love

You gave your heart to me

The whole world roars a chorus of applause

Strangers from Delhi to Dublin

Are swept off their feet as they kiss on the street

And the waters like champagne are bubbling

The winds may blow

Come rain, come snow

Today's for you and me

I gave my heart to you my love

You gave your heart to me

I gave my heart to you my love

You gave your heart to me
