    Story Behind the Song
    My friend Marga is indeed impish (maybe 5 feet tall max), a delightful personality with a Chaplinesque sense of humour. Here it's implied that she's my lover, but she's married and living west of Toronto, and we're still the best of friends. This song, by the way, won a certificate of achievement from the international Unisong competition…

    Lyrics
    TO MY WHIMSICAL LOVE Words & Music © Brian Campbell 2002


    Oh you're such a whimsy, my impish little love
    Your laughter is the light glancing off a waterfall
    Or the dew glinting on the morning grass
    A joy so fresh
    I wonder if it can ever last
    But I suppose I should be glad
    I suppose I should be glad
    I suppose I should be glad
    I have you at all

    You're rain tapping on a window pane
    Flowers of light in a curved earthen jar
    Then you shimmer and you're gone, just like the rainbows
    I've been chasing my whole life long --
    You're so joyful, you laugh so much
    Sometimes I wonder if you can be serious at all --
    If like so many, your joy's but a mask
    Hiding the darkest secrets of all
    But I suppose I should be glad
    I suppose I should be glad
    I suppose I should be glad
    I have you at all

    Oh you're such a crazy, such a whimsical little love
    Your laughter is the light glancing off a waterfall
    Or the dew on the morning grass
    A joy so fresh
    I wonder if it'll ever last
    But I suppose I should be glad
    I suppose I should be glad
    I suppose I should be glad
    I have you at all
