John Grant
Summer Guest
[Verse]
My bird flies home from afar
Brings the joy of spring to me
O'er the oceans endless blue
He never fails, his path is clear and true

Perched upon a branch of green
He rests his legs from the long journey
Forms my heart with wondrous song
I listen close, he tells of battles won

[Chorus]
From my heart
I thank you, friend, for this precious melody
For these sweet and pure tones
Sweet and pure tone

[Verse]
And the autumn comes again
I ask you from my heart, my friend
That you'd have me sing your song
Oh summer guest, I'll miss you while your gone

[Chorus]
From my heart
I thank you, friend for this precious melody
For these sweet and pure tones
Sweet and pure tones
[Outro]
You made a shelter for my soul
If your language, I could speak
I would weave a song for you of my own
