The Song Of Purple Summer Lyrics - Spring Awakening - Spring Awakening

And all shall fade 

The flowers of spring 

The world and all the sorrow 

At the heart of everything 

But still it stays 

The butterfly sings 

And opens purple summer 

With the flutter of its wings 

The earth will wave with corn 

The gray-fly choir will mourn 

And mares will neigh with 

Stallions that they mate, foals they've borne 

And all shall know the wonder of purple summer 

And yet I wait 

The swallow brings 

A song too hard to follow 

That no one else can sing 

The fences sway 

The porches swing 

The clouds begin to thunder 

Crickets wander, murmuring 

The earth will wave with corn 

The gray-fly choir will mourn 

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 

All shall know the wonder of purple summer
