Satin Green Shutters Songtext
von Chris de Burgh

Where your love is, put your heart
Guard these moments well
Where your dreams are, put your hopes
You know they will not fail you
When the sun rises in the morning

You will wake up and find her yawning
When the wind blows strong and cold
She′ll be with you until you grow old
Where your love is, put your heart
Oh, what would you do if your dreams came true?

I would build a lovely house
With satin green shutters, it would be lovely
The most lovely house in the world
And I would sing a lovely song
With you in my mind, and you in my eyes


The most lovely song in the world
I would write it down on the wall
Just for you, just for you
And I would hold you in my arms
For the rest of my days

When you're sad and feeling low
You′re on your own with nowhere to go
Make believe that she is gone
Play your guitar and write a song for her
Write down the words about how you cried
When you woke up weeping

'Cos you thought that she had died
And you heard her breathing through your pain
And you held her close and cried all over again
Where your love is, put your heart
Oh, what would you do if your dreams came true?

And inside my lovely house
With satin green shutters, there would be children
The most lovely children in the world
And even when skies are grey
We would be happy, for we have love


The most lovely love in the world
I would write it down on the wind
Just for you, just for you
And I would hold you in my arms
For the rest of my days
