Concealed amid the Summer green
As stars await their turn to shine
The thrush sings thrice his song unseen
And we would like to hold back time
As stars await their turn to shine
We want his song to never stop
And we would like to hold back time
As another cork we pop
We want his song to never stop
We hope for shooting stars up high
As another cork we pop
Watch nature's fireworks in the sky
We hope for shooting stars up high
The thrush sings thrice his song unseen
Watch nature's fireworks in the sky
Concealed amid the Summer green
As stars await their turn to shine
The thrush sings thrice his song unseen
And we would like to hold back time
As stars await their turn to shine
We want his song to never stop
And we would like to hold back time
As another cork we pop
We want his song to never stop
We hope for shooting stars up high
As another cork we pop
Watch nature's fireworks in the sky
We hope for shooting stars up high
The thrush sings thrice his song unseen
Watch nature's fireworks in the sky
Concealed amid the Summer green
