Summerday Lyrics

12. Summerday

From the ship, we could see it in the distance,
As the fog was finally lifting,
We had come to the shores of Summerday,
Gently landing, we jumped out on the sand and ound our way.
Where the dirt was soft and black
We started digging a garden, and
Soon we found the woods that we’d call
The forest of Arden for to play,
When we came to Summerday,
To the shores of Summerday,
We will live in Summerday.

And we climbed a stony mountain,
We were boisterous then quiet,
As we thought about what instruments to make,
Soon we started to buiild the uillean pipes and fine guitars.
Then we scouted out the hollows for solitude and silence,
And the places we would meet by the blue and glassy river,
Under the stars where the paper lanterns sway,
[Summerday Lyrics On http://www.elyricsworld.com/ ]
In the streets of Summerday,
Trust the night and trust the day,
Sun and moon of Summerday.

We are pilgrims in a land between religions,
We are following our children,
And we paint in different colors every day.
And if we’re true to our hearts they will grow up and want to stay
We will work beside them as they build modest houses,
And on a misty April morning we’ll rest the shovels on the fence
And die and become a summer day.

And the fields of Summerday,
And the flowers of Summerday,
They will live in Summerday,

To the shores of Summerday,
We will live in Summerday.
