lyrics

Will I ever know them quite like I did
When the long hours of summer rolled along?
Sitting in the shade garden, sipping lemonade,
Weary from the sun but still felt strong.
There were twenty thousand things to do
In a summer afternoon
And if we rested long it would be gone.

Will I ever know them quite like I did
When the dreary rains of winter trapped us in?
Some days felt like torture, silent agitation,
Loving hate we all save for our kin.
But, oh, the early evenings
Mom would play piano
And we soaked up her music through our skin.

Will I ever know them quite like I did
When the grass-stained days of spring came around?
All the hills were topped with green as far as we could see
It seemed as though it seeped up from the ground.
And as the days would slide away
So would those hours of play
So in our beds we talked till sleep was found.

Will I ever know them quite like I did
When all our days were held in childhood’s hand?
Moving through our daydreams, skipping over reason,
Building forts to see how long they’d stand.
And as the days would slide away
So would those hours of play
So in our beds we talked till sleep was found.

Technically precise songwriting mirrored with an improvisatory spirit and soaring harmonies are the hallmark of their sound. On their new album, "All is Song", they turn in their finest work to date, an album of inspired declarations to the power of music and song. ... more
