lyrics

in the meadow there's a dancing woman
she's wearing black to tease the sun
she's been walking with the Bear
and somewhere close he'll still be there
living for the moment that's begun

somewhere it is cloudy
somewhere they are making rain
but she is here
and she is dancing
her words are kind
and they make it plain

she is soaking up the happiness
that simpley overflows
the chalice she carries
to share with those that know
that you've got to love life to live
and live with love to give
to be happy
to be happy

back in the garden
well
the Bear he's getting cheeky
he has eaten all the strawberrys for tea
and the woman dressed in black
she's trying so hard not to laugh
but the funny side is the place
she needs to be

somewhere it is cloudy
somewhere they are making rain
but she is here
and she is dancing
her words are kind
and they make it plain

she is soaking up the happiness
that simpley overflows
the chalice she carries
to share with those that know
that you've got to love life to live
and live with love to give
to be happy
to be happy

complications fade away
as her gentle words
paint a perfect day
you feel lucky to be listening
to whatever she says

and in the evening
when the songbirds share their dreaming
the woman is a shadow in the quiet
as she turns to greet the night
her laughter brings the stars to life
with a wicked little twinkle
in her eye

somewhere it is cloudy
somewhere they are making rain
but she is here
and she is dancing
her words are kind
and they make it plain

she is soaking up the happiness
that simpley overflows
the chalice she carries
to share with those that know
that you've got to love life to live
and live with love to give
to be happy
to be happy
