Subject: RE: Help: Songs for two voices, male/female
Tell me why the stars do shine
Tell me why the ivy twines
Tell me why the sky's so blue,
And I will tell you just why I love you

Because God made the stars to shine
Because God made the ivy twine
Because God made the sky so blue
Because God made you, that's why I love you

There's a third verse too, that I can't quite remember at the moment, that ends "He picked you out from all the rest/ Because God made you, I love you the best." I'm sure someone will know. I think half the world must have sung this at camp or in scouts or some such.
Can't think why it's not in DT. (unless it's a copyright problem).
Blessings,
Barbara
