A Daisy A Day
word recorded by Hank Snow
Sung by Jud Strunk
He remembers the first time he met her
He remembered the first thing she said
He remembered the first time he held her
And the night that she came to his bed
He remembers her sweet way of sayin'
Honey has something gone wrong
He remembered the fun and the teasin'
And the reason he wrote her this song
CHORUS
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away
They would walk down the street in the evening
And for years I would see them go by
And their love that was more than the clothes that they wore
Could be seen in the gleam in their eyes
As a kid they would take me for candy
And I'd love to go taggin' along
We'd hold hands while we walked the corner
And the old man would sing her this song
CHORUS
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away
Now he walks down the street in the evening
And he stops by the old candy store
And I somehow believe he's believin'
He's holdin' her hand like before
For he feels all her love walkin' with him
And he smiles at the things she might say
Then the old man walks up to the hill top
And gives her a daisy a day
CHORUS
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away
这首歌从旁人的角度唱出一位老人对逝去的老伴的深深怀念。老人对和老伴相识时的许多个“第一次”记忆犹新， 回忆起年轻时候拉着老伴的手一起走，在糖果店前停留。老人对老伴说过：“每天我会送一朵太阳花给你。” 老伴去世了，老人仍然感到爱情在心中环流。现在老人每天要到山坡顶上，采一朵太阳花(雏菊，daisy)放在老伴的墓前。
