I love the scent of mint so new,
The dawn’s first light, the sunset’s hue.
In drifting clouds that sail the sky,
I dream of worlds where I’ll still fly.
When springtime thunders split the height,
Their rolling echoes shake the night,
I’ll sing a song so pure, so true,
And you will hear—I long for you.
Chorus:
Sing, oh sing,
Let your gladness ring.
Sing, oh sing,
To a simple string.
The summer sun I’ll hold in hand,
A basket full of blooms I’ll stand.
I’ll live through summer, wait for spring,
Love nature through each storm it brings.
When autumn comes with golden flame,
I’ll paint the woods in ochre’s name.
I’ll sing a song so pure, so true,
And you will hear—I long for you.
Chorus 2:
I will drink the rain, drop after drop,
Set a toy ship free, let it drift and stop.
It will sail through valleys, gentle, wide,
See wonders blooming along its ride.
Through towns and fields I’ll search for you,
To love so earthly, kind, and true.
I’ll hold you close, your soul embrace,
And drown in kisses, face to face.
