Papermoon - The Fields Of Summer lyrics

She was there, sitting on the stairs Waiting for her groom In the fields of summer As he came, whispering her name She was whisteling a tune In the fields of summer She said "I love you more than ever" As they layed down in the flowers He said "I do" while he was holding her tight In the fields of summer that night Every night, laying by his side In his arms she cried In the fields of summer Then the day came he had to say "I have to go away From our fields of summer" He said: "My brothers will be going to war And I will follow" He said: "I'll be back, don't you cry anymore, I'll be back before the winter has come" When the battle was raging He was shot down on the floor They were trying to save him But the fire caught them all And the letter he had written to her Was burning before his eyes It said: "I'll be back on september the third And I'll see you in the fields of summer that night" Winter came, birds had flown away She was dreaming every day Of the fields of summer And the snow was covering the road Whitening the field That were green in summer She said: "I know he'll be returning" As she was putting on her make up She said: "Today I'll be together with him" She went out in the snow And noone ever saw her again
