When I found you
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
When I found you
I had nothing left to find
Baby sweet sweet baby
When I found you
Sweeter than a drop of rain
Darling sweet sweet darling
When I found you
So rare I had to say
Baby sweet sweet baby
When I found you
Lips devine I softly prayed
Darling sweet sweet darling
When I found you
Tomorrow would not stay
Baby sweet sweet baby
Pity me pity me
As you turned to walk away
Sorrow sweet sweet sorrow
When I found you
Glistening on a summers day
Darling sweet sweet darling
When I found you
I had nothing left to find
Baby sweet sweet baby
When I found you
I had nothing left to find
