Satin Green Shutters

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Where your love is, put your heart, guard these moments well,

Where your dreams are, put your hopes, you know they will not fail you,

When the sun rises in the morning, you will wake up and find her yawning,

When the wind blows strong and cold, she'll be with you until you grow old,

Where your love is, put your heart, oh what would you do

if your dreams came true?

I would build a lovely house with satin green shutters, it would be lovely

The most lovely house in the world...

And I would sing a lovely song with you in my mind, and you in my eyes,

The most lovely song in the world...

I would write it down on the wall, just for you, just for you;

And I would hold you in my arms for the rest of my days.

When you're sad and feeling low, you're on your own with nowhere to go,

Make believe that she is gone, play your guitar and write a song for her,

Write down the words about how you cried when you woke up weeping,

'Cos you thought that she had died, and you heard her breathing,

Through your pain and you held her close and cried all over again;

Where your love is, put your heart, oh what would you do

if your dreams came true?

And inside my lovely house with satin green shutters, there would

be children,

The most lovely children in the world...

And even when skies are grey, we would be happy, for we have love,

The most lovely love in the world;

I would write it down on the wind, just for you, just for you;

And I would hold you in my arms for the rest of my days.
