Here's a hymn to welcome in the day heralding a summer's early sway And all the bulbs are coming in to begin The thrushes bleeding battle with the wrens disrupts my reverie again Pegging clothing on the line Training jasmine how to vine up the arbor to you door anymore Standing on the landing with the war you shouldered all the night before Once upon it yellow bonnets garland all along You were waking and day was breaking a panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill A barony of ivy in the trees expanding out its empire by degrees And all the branches burst to bloom in the boon Heaven sent this Cardinal marooned to decorate our living room Once upon it yellow bonnets garland all along You were waking and day was breaking a panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill And years from now when this old light isn't ambling anymore Will I bring myself to write Will I bring myself to write I give my best to Springville Hill Once upon it yellow bonnets garland all along You were waking and day was breaking a panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill
