Lyrics by Sophia Smith

lyrics

The sun burning in the sky
Casts its rays
It forms a sheet of wamth
Over my frostbitten face

It stays up in the sky
'till the break of dawn
'till the gleaming stars shine
it won't be dark for long

The brittle branches are leafless and sharp
Soon the snow will fall
Like the music of a harp
November casts out
The warmth of day
The frail flowers are spent
Warm thoughts have withered away

Goodbye beaches where we could lie
the fires heat won't suffice
the wind comes in and it chills
Excitment of all existing thrills
No rain dance
Could calm this lacking romance
The best thing that you could do
Is make it fast and you'll get through

So come and be done
You're taking a lifetime
The children they scowl
"This warping weather is foul"
Anticipation bursts for leaves to return
I have an aching thirst for the heat I yearn

I've heard it said
That nothing lasts forever
In hope I trust these words
It seems the colds ceasing never
The days soon will be bright
With inspirational forces
Celebrations ignite around this solstice
