A Garden in the Rain (1928)

A popular song from 1928
Words by James Dyrenforth
Music by Carroll Gibbons
Lyrics
1. I recall a summer’s day
When you and I had strolled away
And suddenly a storm grew nigh
Seeking shelter from the rain
We hurried down a little lane
Found a lovely spot nearby
Refrain
‘Twas just a garden in the rain
Close to a little leafy lane
A touch of color ‘neath skies of grey
The raindrops kissed the flower beds
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads
A perfumed “thank you” they seemed to say
Surely here was charm beyond compare to view
Maybe it was just that I was there with you
‘Twas just a garden in the rain
But then the sun came out again
And sent us happily on our way
2. I recall our sudden gasp
Of pure delight and then the clasp
Of hands that said, “Do you see, too?”
With a clasp a story starts
For then it first dawned in our hearts
That you loved me and I loved you
