Grand Summer Song



Grand Summer Song

Long ago she too felt young
In the days of yore she always danced and sang
The future looked so bright
Now there’s only night

Memories are all she got
While some are fading as she drinks her tot
Some never go away
They’ll always stay

She remembers walking on a sunny field
And behind the hawthorn hedge it is revealed

She sees a table all decked with food
All her friends are there
Having a summer picnic
All their clothes are bright and fair

From the door she hears a knock
In the darkness is is quite a shock
But she hesitates
While her memory resonates

She remembers walking on a sunny field
And behind the hawthorn hedge it is revealed

She sees the fairest of hobbit lads
Asking her for a dance
Walking upon the meadow
When a knock breaks her dreamy trance

Open the door, dear
Come walk the meadow again, dear
Leave yer burrow and come outside
There is nothing here to fear

Open the door, dear
Come walk the meadow again, dear
Leave yer burrow and come outside
There is nothing here to fear

So she walks outside onto the sunny field
And behind the hawthorn hedge it is revealed

She sees a table all decked with food
All her friends are there
Having a summer picnic
All their clothes are bright and fair

She sees the fairest of hobbit lads
Asking her for a dance
Walking upon the meadow
Bringing kisses and sweet romance

And when the summerday is done
One memory is gone but new are won
And summer never ends
When spent with all of yer friends
