Lovely Song About The Joy of Beauty in Spring and Summer
I hope you enjoy this lovely song by Karen Peris, it reminds me of those moments of joy you can have when walking outside in the spring and summer time :)
Sister birds, will you call me out?
Sister birds, will you wake me then?
I do not want to lose any hour.
All the lawn and the house will flower
in the lovely world of light.
I will be free in the summertime.
I want to be in the summertime.
I can walk on for another mile.
The canal and the road will shine.
Even into the forest lies the lovely world of light.
Songs I heard along these boulevards,
all words gone, and also is my courage tried.
But oh I’m alive.
I wish I knew who lived in that house,
and every side street I can’t go down,
and every window to catch the sun,
every window to catch the sun.
And do they feel the same,
everyone in the lovely world of light?
