I Hear You Singing

I Hear You Singing

I hear you singing outside my window,
in the beautiful rose gardens.
I see you, my angel, with arms
pointed, stretched out to my heart,
I hear you singing,
joining in those nightingales, who dance
in birdbaths, I love thee,
my one cherished love.

You're the pearl of my soul,
and the peace of my mind,
I hear you call to me,
singing so sweetly.
Come up, my love, come up, my love,
and we shall lay together
till 'morrow's new day goes amaying,
my starlight girl,
sing another song to me,
sing the silvery night away,
put the stars and moon to sleep.
