He remembers the first time he met ‘er 
He remembers the first thing she said 
He remembers the first time he held her 
And the night that she came to his bed 

He remembers her sweet way of singin’ 
Honey has somethin’ gone wrong? 
He remembers the fun and the teasin’ 
And the reason he wrote ‘er this song 

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 evenin’ 
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 of their eye 

As a kid they would take me for candy 
And I loved to go taggin’ along 
We’d hold hands while we walked to the corner 
And the old man would sing ‘er his song 

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 evenin’ 
And he stops by the old candy store 
And I somehow believe he’s believin’ 
He’s holdin’ ‘er 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 hilltop 
And gives her a daisy a day 

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
