songs of the sumday

Full lyrics:

there's a hidden grove

where grand Sequoia grows

by a meadow flush

with wild mountain rose

but when Madame changes mood

no mercy shows

gotta make Tioga Pass

before it snows

not much of a match

Mountain verse Man

gotta make Tioga Pass

while you still can

let one last breakfast fire

warm your toes

let the light of dawn

eclipse it's royal glows

but linger not too long

in idle thoughts of to's and fro's

gotta make Tioga Pass

before it snows

not much of a match

Mountain verse Man

gotta make Tioga Pass

while you still can

the drifts will melt

by mid-May I suppose

the ice will yield

as river once more flows

til then best bid adieu

these granite rocks and red pine boughs

gotta make Tioga Pass

before it close

not much of a match

Mountain verse Man

gotta make Tioga Pass

while you still can

it's amazing what a man

in passion's throes

might risk to watch

the turn of season shows

when you'll return

this way again

not even raven knows

gotta make Tioga Pass

before it close

not much of a match

Mountain verse Man

gotta make Tioga Pass

while you still can

there's a hidden grove

where grand Sequoia grows

by a meadow flush

with wild mountain rose

but when Madame changes mood

no mercy shows

gotta make Tioga Pass

before it close

not much of a match

Mountain verse Man

gotta make Tioga Pass

while you still can
