Though I loved the ground she walked upon .

D7..........................G5
I could never have made her mine

The Swallows Fly all along the canal and I watch with a heavy heart.
In Dizzy spins they dive and wheel
touch wings and then depart.
Touch wings and then depart.
As the summer fades away.
Though I loved the ground she walked upon 
I knew that I could not stay.

The Swallow is a summer child and she flies before the cold.
Though I loved the ground she walked upon
She was not mine to hold.
She was not mine to hold.
But it was easy to pretend.
Though I loved the ground She walked upon.
A Summer has to end 
A summer has to end..

From Bob / Dublin/ Ireland...
