MIDSUMMER FIRES Midnight midsummer
Sun won't leave the sky
Here's a fire for the burning
A light to lead the turning The turning of the sun
Down the season's slide
The burning of the sun
That keeps us all alive
The turning of the sun
Down the season's slide
Toward the harvesting of grain
And the long white time Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn
Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn Midnight midsummer
Flames scrape through the sky
Watch them catch
On the horizon
Watch them rise
Higher and wilder In the shadows
Of the flickering folds
The embers fill the dusk
With their rust and gold
In the shadows
Of the flickering folds
Forge a purified world
Out of the old Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn
Midsummer fires burn
In my heart
Midsummer fires burn Midnight midsummer
Sun won't leave the sky
Here's a fire for the burning
A light to lead the turning Stakes and twigs
And garlands green
Midsummer fires burn Birch and blossom
Moss and leaves
Midsummer fires burn Copper coins
Old boats and barrels
Midsummer fires burn Climb right up the
Witch's ladder
Midsummer fires burn Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires burn Build it up
With bricks and beams
Midsummer fires burn Douse it all
With gasoline
Midsummer fires burn Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires
Midsummer fires burn Keep feeding me
Keep feeding me
Till all I can see
It's all I can see Lyrics 2004 Cynthia Conrad
