MIDSUMMER FIRES

Midnight midsummer
Sun won't leave the sky
Here's a fire for the burning
A light to lead the turning

The turning of the sun
Down the season's slide
The burning of the sun
That keeps us all alive
The turning of the sun
Down the season's slide
Toward the harvesting of grain
And the long white time

Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn
Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn

Midnight midsummer
Flames scrape through the sky
Watch them catch
On the horizon
Watch them rise
Higher and wilder

In the shadows
Of the flickering folds
The embers fill the dusk
With their rust and gold
In the shadows
Of the flickering folds
Forge a purified world
Out of the old

Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn
Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn

Midnight midsummer
Sun won't leave the sky
Here's a fire for the burning
A light to lead the turning…

Stakes and twigs
And garlands green
Midsummer fires burn

Birch and blossom
Moss and leaves
Midsummer fires burn

Copper coins
Old boats and barrels
Midsummer fires burn

Climb right up the
Witch's ladder
Midsummer fires burn

Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires burn

Build it up
With bricks and beams
Midsummer fires burn

Douse it all
With gasoline
Midsummer fires burn

Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires burn

Keep feeding me
Keep feeding me
Till all I can see
It's all I can see

MIDSUMMER FIRES      Midnight midsummer   Sun won't leave the sky   Here's a fire for the burning   A light to lead the turning      The turning of the sun   Down the season's slide   The burning of the sun   That keeps us all alive   The turning of the sun   Down the season's slide   Toward the harvesting of grain   And the long white time      Midsummer fires burn   In my heart   Midsummer fires burn   Midsummer fires burn   In my heart   Midsummer fires burn      Midnight midsummer   Flames scrape through the sky   Watch them catch   On the horizon   Watch them rise   Higher and wilder      In the shadows   Of the flickering folds   The embers fill the dusk   With their rust and gold   In the shadows   Of the flickering folds   Forge a purified world   Out of the old      Midsummer fires burn   In my heart   Midsummer fires burn   Midsummer fires burn   In my heart   Midsummer fires burn      Midnight midsummer   Sun won't leave the sky   Here's a fire for the burning   A light to lead the turning…      Stakes and twigs   And garlands green   Midsummer fires burn      Birch and blossom   Moss and leaves   Midsummer fires burn      Copper coins   Old boats and barrels   Midsummer fires burn      Climb right up the   Witch's ladder   Midsummer fires burn      Midsummer fires   Midsummer fires   Midsummer fires burn      Build it up   With bricks and beams   Midsummer fires burn      Douse it all   With gasoline   Midsummer fires burn      Midsummer fires   Midsummer fires   Midsummer fires burn      Keep feeding me   Keep feeding me   Till all I can see   It's all I can see         Lyrics © 2004 Cynthia Conrad
