Lyrics:
Listen to what's in the heart of a child,
A song so big in one so small
Soon you will hear where beauty lies,
You'll hear and you'll recall
The sadness, the doubt, all the loss the grief,
Will belong to some play from the past,
As the child leads the way to a dream a belief,
A time of hope through the land
A summer's day
A mother sings
A song of purple summer
Through the heart of everything
And heaven waits
So close it seems
To show her child the wonders
Of a world beyond her dreams
The earth will wave with corn
The day so wide, so warm
And mares will neigh
With stallions that they mate
Foals they've borne
And all shall know the wonder
Of purple summer
And so I wait
The swallow brings
A song of what's to follow
The glory of the spring
The fences sway
The porches swing
The clouds begin to thunder
Crickets wander murmuring
The earth will wave with corn
The day so wide, so warm
And mares will neigh
With stallions that they mate
Foals they've borne
And all shall know the wonder
I will sing the song of purple summer
All shall know the wonder
I will sing the song of purple summer
And all shall know the wonder
Of purple summer
