Lilac and Sweet Clover

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

You can't catch the summer

And hold it to ransom

You can only run after it

As it dances away

In a cloud of

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

And I think we were friends

If I recall those days

When the lights were dancing

Way over our heads

Tears teach us to be human

Laughter sweeter than wine

Years run like water

It's all just a matter of time

You can't catch the summer

And hold it to ransom

You can only run after it

As it dances away

In a cloud of

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head
