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 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
