I heard it from the valleys I heard it ringing in the mountains ah-aa-aa-aa I heard it from the valleys I heard him singing in the mountains ah-aa-aa-aa Baby, when I drowse to-night, a-haa Skirting lawns of sleep to chase, a-haa Shifting dreams in and hazy eyes, a-haa Somewhere then I'll see your face, a-haa Turning back to bid me follow, a-haa Where I wag my arms and hollow, a-haa Over hedges chasing after, a-haa Crooked smile and strange laughter Behold such dreams are true O-hoo, a-haa O-hoo, a-haa O-hoo, a-haa Now she's back, all mirth and glory Like a princecess in a fairy story Winter called her far away Blossoms bring her home with May Now she's here again Standing in a wooden swing Alive Alive Alive Now he's here again Standing in a wood that swings To the madrigal she sings And I'm sure, as here I stand That she shines through every land That she sings in every place Where we're thinking of her face And we know such dreams are true, o-hoo-oo
