THIS IS MY SONG
(Gordon Lightfoot)

As recorded by Gordon Lightfoot 1962


Light of day has come and gone
As I sing my weary song
Why should you be gone so long
I miss you, I miss you, this is my song.

I've thought and thought and can't conceive
Why you made this fool believe
That you could never do him wrong
I miss you, I miss you, this is my song.

I feel your touch, I see your face
I long to know your warm embrace
The night is long, as is my song
I'll hum its tune through time and place.

I wish you knew what I've been through
Since you proved to be untrue
Love was right, but I was wrong
I miss you, I miss you, this is my song

I miss you, I miss you, this is my song.
