Richard Thompson - Traces of My Love lyrics

The songbird sings so clear Like your voice upon my ear I seem to hear traces of my love The river rushes down There's sweetness in the sound I seem to hear traces of my love When I lay on my bed I find no rest, instead I seem to see You here with me O will that sweet day ever be O, o traces of my love O, o traces of my love In every crowded place In every stranger's face I seem to see traces of my love Inside my darkest day When the world seems cold and grey I seem to see traces of my love If I try to turn my head Or close my eyes Instead I see you there O everywhere Shadows of a face so rare O, o traces of my love O, o traces of my love If I try to turn my head Or close my eyes Instead I see you there O everywhere Shadows of a face so rare O, o traces of my love O, o traces of my love
