John Denver - Season Suite: Lyrics
This medley was first released on the rocky mountain high album. it is the only album it has been released on. summer also appears on the an evening with album.SummerSilently the morning mist is lying on the waterCaptive moonlight waiting for the dawnSoftly like a baby's breath a breeze begins to whisperThe sun is coming, quick you must be goneSmiling like a superstar the morning comes in singingThe promise of another sunny dayAnd all the flowers open up to gather in the sunshineI do believe that summer's here to stayAnd oh i love the life within meI feel part of everything i seeAnd oh i love the life around meA part of everything is here in meRiding on the tapestry of all there is to seeSo many ways and oh so many thingsRejoicing in the differences, ther's no one just like meYet as different as we are we're still the sameAnd oh i love the life within meI feel part of everything i seeAnd oh i love the life around meA part of everything is here in meFallReflections on the water like shadows in my mindSpeak to me of passing days and nights and passing timeThe falling leaves are whispering winter's on it's wayI close my eyes remembering the warmth of yesterdayIt seems a shame to see september swallowed by the winterAnd more than that it's oh so sad to see the summer endAnd though the changing colors are a lovely thing to seeIf it were mine to make the change i'd let it beBut i don't remember hearing anybody asking meWinterIt's cold and it's getting colderIt's gray and white and winter all aroundAnd oh i must be getting olderAll this snow is trying to get me downThere's a fire in the corner slowly dyin'Sometimes i just don't feel like goin' onAnd yet i know it's more than worth the waitingFor another chance to see the summer sunCome on, shine on me!Late winter, early spring(when everybody goes to mexico)(instrumental only)SpringOpen up your eyes and see a brand new dayA clear blue sky and brightly shining sunOpen up your ears and hear the breezes sayEverything that's cold and gray has goneOpen up your hands and feel the rain come downTaste the wind and smell the flowers' sweet perfumeOpen up your mind and let the light come inThe earth has been reborn and life goes onDo you care what's happening around youDo your senses know the changes when they comeCan you see yourself reflected in the seasonsCan you understand the need to carry onRiding on the tapestry of all there is to seeSo many ways and oh so many thingsRejoicing in the differences, there's no one just like meYet as different as we are we're still the sameAnd oh i love the life within meI feel a part of everything i seeAnd oh i love the life within meA part of everything is here in meA part of everything is here in meA part of everything is here in meWords and music by john denver, mike taylor and dick kniss
