Lyrics Karen Elson

Karen Elson

Lunasa

Mid beautiful flowers, bright fields and clear streams

We pass precious hours of summer and dreams

The birds' gentle twitter, the frog's silver peep

All seem to have faded, while we were asleep

The song we're now hearing is mournful and strange

As the sun starts to set and the leaves start to change

From the hill over yonder we hear the bulls cry

As the leaves start to fall and the moon starts to rise

Oh the bulls all howl at the moon, it is full and hung

over the hill

The autumn leaves will all be falling soon and then

winter will come in for the kill

But there are still green trees and one last round for

the bees

Before we all freeze over for a spell

So let us treasure these moments together

As we sing along so long and fare thee well

For tonight is the last night of summer my love

Of the summer of love

Of the summer my love

For tonight is the last night of summer my love

Of the summer of love

Of the summer my love

The beautiful flowers will all fade away

The streams will all freeze and the fields turn to gray

The frogs all will slumber, the birds will take flight

And winter's cold wonder will bid us goodnight
