lyrics

TREASURE THIS WONDROUS WORLD

Here are the fields of green
Here is the mighty oak
Where secret magpies play
And hide their hoard of gold

Bright is your dream of gold
Search for the gleam of gold
Who knows what you will find?
Wile away a gentle day

Gold in the morning sun
Silver in the early moon
Crimson in the autumn leaves
Velvet blue as twilight falls

Take care of what we have
Remember who we were
Think of those who came before
Treasure this wondrous world

Think of your life and mine
Unfolding day by day
Life with you is calm and slow
This is how the world should be

Think of your life and mine
Joined by this gentle love
Who knew what I would find
While I was waiting here
For you
Waiting for you

Gold in the morning sun
Silver in the early moon
Crimson in the autumn leaves
Velvet blue as twilight falls

Take care of what we have
Remember who we were
Think of those who came before
Treasure this wondrous world

Take care of what we have
Remember who we were
Think of those who came before
Treasure this wondrous world

Treasure this wondrous world
Treasure this wondrous world
