Strawberry Field's Child
Hey little girl behind blue curtain windows of despair Would'st care to dance? Mayhap delight in sweet romance Of rhythmic stepping joy Who put that silvered sunlight in your hair Some naughty boy? Would that I could closer feel your hammering heart against my own Close your eyes and listen to the living music play Allow yourself to float upon the air �tis oh so pleasing there Let Summer birds sound glory in your soul today Fill yourself with wonder and breathe sweet memory Let hands of yesterday caress crinolin skin Drink in feelings and be once again refreshed Tis Nature letting you be blessed Forever�s child of wonder dancing to the thunder in your breast Spinning winning yet again to feel Sweet tender soft fulfillment of your loving innocence In secret Summer dance from rocking chair Let sunlight in those sparkling eyes Rewarm your soul with living light And shine your silver hair Strawberry Fields is still there I've swung on the gate (So is Penny Lane) © 2008 Donald Meikle |
