Summer for Stareaters Lyrics

Between the hills there will be a small river

The sound of the water over the Stones

Echo with the bird song in the still air

At the water side there will be small houses

With gentle plumes of smoke twisting in the air out of a singular chimney

The windows are square,

Two on each wall on the sides and back,

With one next to the front door,

Which will have an open veranda

With fishing nets leaning up against wood panels

And the people will be happy

They will live in harmony with the earth

The children will go to school and play

Then walk home across the green grass

To their families

their mothers and fathers

On summer nights they will look up at the stars

The air will be warm

In winter they will build fires and sit together

They will not fight each other

They will live off the land and share amongst their neighbours

No one will ever move away

It will be perfect forever
