Stockton Gala Days
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
That summer fields grew high
With foxglove stalks and ivy
Wild apple blossoms everywhere
Emerald green like none I have seen
Apart from dreams that escape me
There was no girl as warm as you
How I've learned to please
To doubt myself in need
You'll never, you'll never know
That summer fields grew high
We made garland crowns in hiding
Pulled stems of flowers from my hair
Blue in the stream like none I have seen
Apart from dreams that escape me
There was no girl as bold as you
How I've learned to please
To doubt myself in need
You'll never, you'll never know
You'll never know
Violet serene like none I have seen
Apart from dreams that escape me
There was no girl as warm as you
How I've learned to please
To doubt myself in need
You'll never, you'll never know
How I've learned to please
To doubt myself in need
You'll never, you'll never know
You'll never know
That summer fields grew high
We had wildflower fever
We had to lay down where they grow
(Where they grow)
How I've learned to hide
How I've locked inside
You'd be surprised if shown
But you'll never, you'll never know
You'll never, never know
How I've learned to hide
How I've locked inside
You'd be surprised if shown
But you'll never, you'll never know
