SUMMER GRASS AND LOVE


The grass summer brown
High on Mt. Tamalpias
Above the fog
And looking to the ocean
Over the trees
Far into the distance

Looking up into blue skies
You take my hand
And we twirl round and round
The subtle dance of summer love
Soon the sun will set
We will make the long walk down

Youthful dreams from your skimming touch
Too young to understand
Life is complete at this instant
Your eyes alive speckles of gold
Lips soft and full of innocence
How long would it last

Beyond today
No one can know
To us it doesn�t matter
The others are coming
Will they see what is in our hearts
We shine with love
