Lyrics Blackmore's Night

Blackmore's Night

Strawberry Girl

Through the long days of summer

Where the air was as sweet as perfume

We walked through the golden meadows

And danced by the light of the moon

She was a lonely angel

Sitting there by the side of the road

On the edge of the forest

That's where the wild things grow

And blue skies of promise opened before us

There in her eyes are the dreams of the world

Blue skies of promise rained down upon us

Life is so sweet with a strawberry girl

In her hand was a basket

Sticks and branches were woven as one

She smiled bright like a child

Bright as the afternoon sun

It was filled with her treasures

A whole cradle of nature's bounty

Wild flowers were chosen

To lay amongst the forest berries

And blue skies of promise opened before us

There in her eyes are the dreams of the world

Blue skies of promise rained down upon us

Life is so sweet with a strawberry girl

"It's a great day for a gatherer

You can say that I told you so

In these uncertain days

It's the simple things you need the most"

And blue skies of promise opened before us

There in her eyes are the dreams of the world

Blue skies of promise rained down upon us

Life is so sweet with a strawberry girl

Blue skies of promise opened before us

There in her eyes are the dreams of the world

Blue skies of promise rained down upon us

Life is so sweet with a strawberry girl
