BEETHOVEN’S DREAM
Music: Ludwig van Beethoven (arr.), Lyrics: Roger Coghill
(D minor Concert)
Well I remember
Those glorious summer days
June to September
And sunsets all ablazing.
We were so young then
With all our lives ahead
Green fields and forests
Inviting and amazing.
Life is so short
And the road will bend
Use every day
From start until the ending.
Slowly so slowly
The summers turn to fall
Rain turns to snowflakes
As winter comes a-calling.
Echoes of laughter
Our friends would always leave,
Borne on the breezes
Now all they leave is grieving.
