Summerland - words & music by Luke Vassella Copyright 2013

In the summerland, the eternal sun
Shines a light on everyone
The good and bad, the old and young
Puts a nameless thirst upon every tongue
In a land once marked for timber, for cattle and for cane
There's a memory of Eden, we'll never see again
And secrets held in the palm of every hand
Don't let us take for granted what we have, in the summerland

In the summerland, I'm watching the dolphins play
While the end of the world waits for one more day
Best keep your treasure stored where no one can steal your joy
Where no thief gonna break in and destroy
And don't always go gentle into that good night my friend
You speak the truth placed on your heart, seek justice till the end
Though our greatest deeds are only castles in the sand
Don't let us take for granted what we have in the summerland

O what a beautiful light, I reach up with an open hand
Let there be no secrets tonight, let there be peace on the summerland
My friend we'll make of it the best we can
Lord help us tread light, as we walk on the summerland
