Lyric

[Verse 1]

Saw you standing by the candy stand

Sunlight dancing on your hand

You looked up and smiled my way

So I tied a ribbon around that day

[Verse 2]

You said hi and it felt brand new

Like the sky turned a softer blue

Didn’t say much, didn’t need to say

So I tied a ribbon around that day

[Chorus]

Ooh, I kept it safe inside

Like a seashell from the tide

Folded up in memory

Just you and little ol’ me

And I smile when skies turn gray

’Cause I tied a ribbon around that day

[Verse 3]

Didn’t know what love could do

Till the breeze brought me to you

One small moment, slipped away

But I tied a ribbon around that day

[Chorus]

Ooh, I kept it safe inside

Like a firefly I’d hide

In a jar of summer light

Shining soft and sweet at night

And it still won’t drift away

’Cause I tied a ribbon around that day

[Outro]

Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, mmm-mmm-ay

I tied a ribbon… around that day…
