(If I had to choose just one day)

If I had to choose just one day,
To last my whole life through,
It would surely be that Sunday --
The day that I met you

Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills --
Summer was a-coming in but fast.
Lots of daffodils were showing off their skills --
Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper,
"Go on, kiss him, go on and kiss him"

If I had to choose one moment,
To live within my heart,
It would be that tender moment,
Recalling how we started.
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me --
That way, that Sunday, that summer

Instrumental Interlude

"Go on, kiss him, go on and kiss him"

And if I had to choose just one moment,
To live within my heart,
It would surely be that moment,
Recalling how we started.
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me --
That way, that Sunday, that summer.

(If I had to choose just one day)...
