Chelsworth
Little Red Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All through Spring, and Summer too,
We laughed and filled our cup.
'Til autumn brings a certain chill,
To know those times are up.
My dearest friend will you give your hand,
And drink one last good drop;
For Winter too will pass away,
And Summer return love.
Now let me speak with careless heart,
Those words of Winter
For now the time has come at last,
When we must say farewell.
Though the days have gone as the river runs,
The sunlight streaming gold;
We'll never walk these hills again,
As in the days of old.
Through all these years I've known your love,
So bright and great and clear.
And clouds were dark in skies above,
And drama deep with spit.
He touched my heart and stilled my mind,
With words that sing like chimes.
I'll never leave your side again,
In dark and lonely times.
I'll never leave your side again,
In dark and lonely times.




I'll never leave your side again,
In dark and lonely times.

I know the park that this song is named after. When I was a kid in high school we built a little village there in the scrub that we frequented for bong smoking. Perhaps these guys did the same? Good old Chelsworth Park!
