Whose golden heart I saw gleaming.

I thought I'd win the heart within,
Am

But now I know that I was dreaming.
F

F

But I will rise, and I will sing,
Am
F

Until I know I can't conceal it.
F

Because I hold the saddest song,
F

I wish to God I cannot feel it.

And then the boy, the bitter boy,

He came to me for rest and healing.

He reached in his chest, deep in his breast,

Held out the heart for me stil gleaming.

But I will rise, and I will sing,

We walked for miles through stormy weather.

And hand in hand, we roamed the land,
