Testi musica - The Decemberists - The King Is Dead - June Hymn

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a hymn to welcome in the day
Heralding a summer's early sway
And all the bulbs all coming in
To begin
The thrushes' bleating battle with the wrens
Disrupts my reverie again

Pegging clothing on the line
Training jasmine, how divine
Up the arbor to your door
And more
Standing on the landing with the war
You shouldered all the night before

Once upon it
Yellow bonnets
Garlanded all the lawn
You were waking
Day was breaking
A panoply of song
The summer comes to Springville Hill

A barony of ivy in the trees
Expanding on its empire by degrees
And all the branches burst abloom
In the boom
Heaven sent this cardinal maroon
To decorate our living room

But once upon it
Yellow bonnets
Garlanded all the lawn
And you were waking
Day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill

Years from now
When this old lie
Isn't ambling anymore
Will I bring myself to rye?
I give my best to Springville Hill

But once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garlanded all the lawn
And you were waking
Day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill
