Mel Torm — The Day You Came Along

My heart went leaping The day you came along Forgot my weeping The day you came along Before I knew it, I hummed a little song The day you came along I only drifted before you came along The fog was lifted Because you came along I sent the blackbirds right back where they belong The day you came along Men have conquered nations Other men have set them free Pioneers across the sea You can turn the pages through the ages but to me T'was the most eventful day in history Two souls were mated The day you came along A world created The day you came along One glance convinced me I knew I wasn't wrong The day you came along I was a very solitary star Just like a chimp that speaks a friendly part Just when I thought my hopes had taken flight You came inside like a beacon light Men have conquered nations Other men have set them free Pioneers across the sea You can turn the pages through the ages but to me T'was the most eventful day in history Two souls were mated The day you came along A world created Because you came along One glance convinced me I knew I wasn't wrong The day you came along
