June Hymn [The Decemberists Cover] lyrics

Here's a hymn to welcome in the day

Heralding a summer's early sway

And all the bulbs all coming in

To begin

Thrushes bleating battle with the wrens

Disrupts my reverie again

Pegging clothing on the line

Training jasmine how to vine

Up the arbor to your door

Any more?

Standing on the landing with the war

You shouldered all the night before

Once upon it

Yellow bonnets

Garland all along

You were waking

Day was breaking

Panoply of song

Summer comes to Springville Hill

A barony of ivy in the trees

Expanding out its empire by degrees

And all the branches burst a bloom

Into bloom

Heaven sent this cardinal maroon

To decorate our living room

Once upon it

Yellow bonnets

Garland all along

You were waking

Day was breaking

Panoply of song

Summer comes to Springville Hill

Years from now, when this old light

Isn't ambling anymore

Will I bring myself to write:

"Give my best to Springville Hill"

Once upon it

Yellow bonnets

Garland all along

You were waking

Day was breaking

Panoply of song

Summer comes to Springville Hill

Summer comes to Springville Hill
