Satin Green Shutters
Chris de Burgh
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 the 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
