Hear the hymn to welcome in the day
|
Heralding a summer's early sway
|
And all the bulbs all coming in, to begin
|
Thrushs' bleeding battle with the wrens
|
Disrupts my reverie again
|
|
Pegging clothing on the line
|
Training jasmine how to vine
|
Up the arbor to your door, and more
|
Standing on the landing with the war
|
You shouldered all the night before
|
|
And once upon it
|
The yellow bonnets
|
Garland all the lawn
|
And you were waking
|
And day was breaking
|
A panoply of song
|
And summer comes to Springville Hills
|
|
A barany of ivy in the trees
|
Expanding out it's empire by degrees
|
And all the branches burst a' bloom
|
Into bloom
|
Heaven sent this cardinal, maroon
|
To decorate our living room
|
|
And once upon it
|
The yellow bonnets
|
Garland all the lawn
|
And you were waking
|
And day was breaking
|
A panoply of song
|
And summer comes to Springville Hills
|
|
And years from now
|
When this old light isn't ambling anymore
|
Will I bring myself to ride (?)
|
I give my best to Springville Hills
|
|
And once upon it
|
The yellow bonnets
|
Garland all the lawn
|
And you were waking
|
And day was breaking
|
A panoply of song
|
And summer comes to Springville Hills
|
And summer comes to Springville Hills
|
