Close Your Eyes And Remember

Blowing softly through a meadow 
Laughing like a baby, breeze tapping 
lightly at the treetops, whispering among the leaves 

You hear the magic song, that ancient poets sing 
It's sweet as morning dew and sounds a lot like springtime 
When you close your eyes 
You feel your heat go there 
So close your eyes and you may find that 
Fireflies were as bright as stars
Close your eyes and remember 
Summertime lingered on and on 
Close your eyes and remember 
Your first love made the world stand still 
Close your eyes and remember 
Close your eyes and remembers when 
The moon was made of cheese 

Racing swiftly through the mountains 
Bubbling along the stream 
Sighing sweetly through the hollow 
Gentle as an infant's dream
