In an old Dutch garden by an old Dutch mill, Where the moon was dreaming on a distant hill, When a smile danced by it was then that I saw Heaven in a pair of wooden shoes. In an old Dutch garden where the tulips grow That's where I first whispered that I love you so For my heart was blue till I gave it to An angel in a pair of wooden shoes. Then one sad day when summer meets September I sailed away from a thrill I will remember, In an old Dutch garden by an old Dutch mill Every day I pray that you are waiting still For my heart will yearn until I return To Heaven in a pair of wooden shoes
