Phoebe Snow is one of my all time favorites, but here is another:

A DAISY A DAY by Judd Strunk

He remembers the first time he met her
He remembers the first thing she said
He remembers the first time he held her
And the night she came to his bed
He remembers her sweet way of saying
"Honey, has something gone wrong"?
He remembers the fun and the teasing
And the reason he wrote her this song.
Chorus
I'll give you a Daisy a day dear
I'll give you a Daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away.

They would walk down the street in the evening
For years I would see them go by
And the love that was more than the clothes that they wore
Could be seen in the gleam in their eye
As a kid they would take me for candy
And I loved to go tagging along
We'd hold hands as we walked to the corner
And the old man would sing her his song.

repeat chorus

Now he walks down the street in the evening
And he stops by the old candy store
And I somehow believe he's believing
He's holding her hand like before
He feels all her love walking with him
And he smiles at the things she might say
Then the old man walks up to the hilltop
And he gives her a Daisy a day.

Repeat chorus.

I get all sniffy when I hear or read this.
