lyrics

i spy a firefly, a lantern, a choir
walkin’ along till i’m too tired

from brookdale to yantecaw, to ketzel and connor’s
a good way to wander with the brook down yonder

picture a promenade from park to park
hello! from the yellow squares
to the stone-clad stairs stepping down, so scared
i remember my first time there

i’ve got a memory of alanzo bonsal
felt like i was finding fossils

the moonlight, the melody
the sundries and song here
i’m just a visitor, i won’t be long here

church bells bringin’ in the barred owl’s day
not so welcoming when i was afraid
there’s nothing dangerous about this place

the streets in the summer,
the silence, the thunder
i walk and i wander unencumbered
