(spoken) erika with the windy yellow hair Dancing through the day or moping by the stair My joy to know my erika with the windy yellow hair Yesterday i met her running home from school Her face was tear stained, she didn't know i knew But i do, i do But today she had a song to sing and a poem she knew And with a kiss and a hug she just dashed away, she had things to do I do too, i do too Lithesome child, i turn with care When viewing you on step or stair All my hope and love for you, My erika with the windy yellow hair (sung) i'll walk in the rain by your side I'll cling to the warmth of your tiny hand I'll do anything to help you understand I'll love you more than anybody can And the wind will whisper your name to me Little birds will sing along in time The leaves will bow down as you walk by And morning bells will chime I'll be there when you're feeling down To kiss away the tears if you cry And i'll share with you all the happiness i've found A reflection of the love in your eyes And i'll sing you the songs of the rainbow Whisper of the joy that is mine The leaves will bow down when you walk by And morning bells will chime
