(Chorus)
Miriam (Miriam)* you're like a song (like a song)*
Wher eMiriam do you belong?
You fill the air (fill the air)* around me when you're near
And your memory lingers on though we're apart
You'll alwasy have a home with me here
If only in my heart

(Verse 2)
She's going back to Pennsylvania
I pray she finds all that she hopes for
I don't know if I'll ever see her again
But I'll never stop dreaming about her

(Pre-hook)
She grew up a gorgeous wil prairie flower
With a grandfather she took as much care of
I had always hoped I could be the one to pick her
But I guess she never needed my love

(Chorus)

(Chorus "echo": additional refrain)
(Like a song Miriam
Where do you belogn Miriam
You fill teh air around me when you're near
And your memory lingers on though we're apart
You'll always have a home with me here)*
If only in my heart

(Verse 2, altered meter)
When she laughs her eyes twinkle, and her teeth won't hide her tongue
But she might have shown it to you anyway
And you know that your'e in trouble when her hair has been flung
She won't speak until you know just what to say

(Chorus)
(Chorus addition)
