In An Old Dutch Garden - Original

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 'til 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
