A Song For You

(The Girl With) Gardenias in Her Hair - Marty Robbins

Written by：Bob Johnson/Joe Byers/ Robert Tubert

One starry night in a little town in old Mexico

I found my love down by the sea where soft trade winds blow

She came in the night with perfume that sweetened the air

And I lost my heart to the girl with gardenias in her hair

I glanced her way she smiled and my heart started to sing

She came into my arms and the night became a sweet magic thing

When I held her close I knew I'd follow her anywhere

And I lost my heart to the girl with gardenias in her hair

We shared through the night our love until the first light of dawn

Then one last kiss and like a whisper on the wind she was gone

I go each night to the places where she once spoke my name

Some call me fool they say I'm chasing only a dream

But I know one day I'll turn and suddenly she'll be there

And I'll spend my life with the girl with gardenias in her hair
