Текст песни
How I long to spend my days
In quietness, away from noise
In simple joys and gentle grace
May trouble pass and lose its voice
Let storms stay with the sky alone
Not with the ones I hold so near
May those I love not leave me prone
When luck runs out and clouds appear
Let friends be many, foes be few
But where there's hate, let love be more
And let the sky keep that pure blue
I knew on summers long before
Bright, deep, and wide, a soaring dome
With sunlit corners softly glowing
Let children laugh, let old age roam
In peace not grief, not fearing
Let doors stand open to the far
To distant lands and endless shores
You'll call it nonsense — dreamer's star
That life's not what the heart adores
But I'll go on believing still
Though you may say I've lost my mind
And let that flame burn bright until
The world proves me not weak, but kind
