Lyrics

I SAW YOU GOING OUT TODAY

I saw you going out today
You blew a kiss from the roadway
And your smile made me feel so glad

I know you're not going away
That we are here to stay
Unlike so many loves
That go bad

Maybe these are illusions, delusions
Maybe sorrow is not very far
Maybe these are like so many lies
And flights of fancy that swiftly die
That come from voice and guitar

But when I saw you out today
that kiss, the way you waved
Ah, you made me feel so glad

Your presence in my life, my love
Is sunlight showering from above
On a day of gentle breathing

Maybe these are illusions, delusions,
Maybe sorrow is not very far
Maybe these are like so many lies
And flights of fancy that swiftly die
That come from voice and guitar

But when I went out today
The memory of your kiss, your cheerful wave
Ah, you made me feel so glad

Your beauty nightly by my side
All these moments that we share
These are the blessings of my life

Praise be to sun and moon
Earth and stars, shore and sea
All that reposes in your gentle being, my love

Maybe these are illusions, delusions,
Maybe sorrow is not very far
Maybe these are like so many lies
And flights of fancy that swiftly die
That come from voice and guitar . . .
That come from voice and guitar . . .
That come from voice and guitar . . .
