French Song

Roy Drusky · Country Music All Around the World (Mercury) [1965]

(Harry Pease - Larry Vincent)



When the sun says good day to the mountain

And the night says hello to the dawn

I'm alone with my dreams on the hilltop

I can still hear her voice though she's gone.



I hear from my door the love songs through the wind

They bring back sweet memories of you

Now when the sun says good day to the mountain

I'm alone thinkin' only of you.



--- Instrumental ---



I hear from my door the love songs through the wind

They bring back sweet memories of you

Now when the sun says good day to the mountain

I'm alone thinkin' only of you...
