chorus |
She holds me, my
Lady of
the Valley |
|
She holds even
though I always
roam |
|
Still she holds
me, my Lady
of the Valley |
|
In the dying
days of summer, my
lady calls me home |
|
|
1.
|
I was free like
a petal on the
water |
|
I was free like
a feather on the
wind |
|
I was free till
I came to Walnut
Valley |
|
Where my lady
touched my heart
and gently took me
in |
|

2.
|
You can say I'm
a dreamer and a
drifter |
|
You can say
that my pathways
are my own |
|
You can say that
I go which way the
wind blows |
|
Before the
leaves turn golden
I find I'm heading
home |
|
|
bridge |
Sometimes I
drift away out
west |
|
Leave the lady
and the valley
behind |
|
But I smell wood
smoke in the wind |
|
And hear a
lonesome sound
that brings her
memory back to
mind |

coda
|
In the dying
days of summer, my
lady calls me home |
|
She holds me |
