The Fruits of My Labour

"The Fruits of My Labour" lyrics:

Verse 1
One year ago my heart stopped smiling
I was left alone
No children playing, friends celebrating
Our future was unknown

Verse 2
I found a flower and made a wish...
'Please make my dreams come true'
With light and love, rain from above
I hoped that joy would bloom

CHORUS
Drop by drop and day by day
New hope and sunshine comes my way
Step by step and mile by mile
My heart remembers how to smile.

Verse 3
A shoot, a bud, a flower, a tree
And soon comes fruit for you and me
And once again we laugh and sing
And thank our land for everything.

CHORUS
Drop by drop and day by day
New hope and sunshine comes my way
Step by step and mile by mile
My heart remembers how to smile.

Verse 4
And as time passed an orchard grew
Where children played and dreams came true
Fruit and love for everyone
My homeland's filled with joy and song

CHORUS
Drop by drop and day by day
New hope and sunshine comes my way
Step by step and mile by mile
My heart now knows that it can smile
