| Sinéad: |
| Snowdrops and daffodils, butterflies and bees, |
| Sailboats and fishermen, things of the sea, |
| Wishing wells and wedding bells, early morning dew-- |
| All kinds of everything remind me of you. |
| |
| Terry Hall: |
| Seagulls and aeroplanes, things of the sky, |
| Winds that go howling, breezes that sigh, |
| City sights, neon lights, grey skies or blue-- |
| All kinds of everything remind me of you. |
| |
| Sinéad: |
| Summertime, wintertime, spring and autumn, too, |
| Monday, Tuesday, every day, I think of you, |
| Terry Hall: |
| Dances, romances, things of the night, |
| Sunshine and holidays, postcards to write, |
| Sinéad: |
| Budding trees, autumn leaves, snowflake or two-- |
| All kinds of everything remind me of you. |

Notes
The original version, by Dana, was the winner of the 1969 Irish National Song Contest, and that country's winning entry in the 1970 Eurovision contest. She later recorded it as a single, which was produced by Phil Coulter, who later worked with Sinéad on Universal Mother and his own Lake of Shadows albums, as well as other projects.

In a comment on the YouTube music video, co-producer Nick Bradshaw says,
It's been great reading the comments to this. Confession: I'm guilty of coming up with the idea of this cover while sitting in a pub with Terry around 25 years ago and subsequently produced the track with him. It was recorded in Church Studios in North London on a wet Sunday afternoon, with the video filmed the same day in the same location. The Eurythmics' Dave Stewart, who'd worked with Terry previously and who'd happened to drop by (he owned the recording studio) on the day of the recording, provided the guitar track.
(Note that Dave Stewart isn't credited in the Collaborations liner notes.)
