I met a girl out in the hills who gave my lonely heart a thrill

Her beauty seemed just like a breath of spring.
And when I looked into her eyes I thought of blue mid-summer skies
And when I held her hand in mine (I heard the bluebirds sing.) Circle Left
They sang of loving (loving every hour)
That I'm married (married to my flower)
Left Allemande, you Swing and Promenade
And though we're older (older love is sweeter)
We grow fonder (fonder of each other)
We'll be sweethearts (sweethearts close together)
Until the end of time.
Figure:
The Head two couples Promenade, go Halfway `round that ring I say,
Come down the middle, Square Thru count me four,
Go all the way around and then you Dosado one time my friend,
Now Swing Thru go two by two and Boys Run to the Right,
Then you Ferris Wheel, now you Pass Thru,
Swing your corner, and Promenade back home
And though we're older, we grow fonder,
We'll be sweethearts, until the end of time.
Additional Lyrics:
I courted her for months on end un-til she promised we would be wed,
We planned on being married in the spring.
All through the long cold winter months it seemed that spring would never come,
And every gloomy winter's day (I heard the bluebirds sing.)
And when at last spring touched the earth, we were married in the village church,
Our wedding seemed just like a dream come true.
So many years have come and gone our love is still as true and strong,
As when I found her long ago and still the bluebirds sing.
