Summer time the sun would shine
We'd lay acrossed the field
Sheltered in the shadow of a tree
We'd write our poems to take along
And sing out on the road
And this is what you always used to sing
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be at your back
May the sun shine down warm upon your land
May the rain fall soft upon your face until we meet again May god hold you in the palm of his hand
Autumn leaves would change our trees to colors on the ground
Swirling patterns beautiful to see
I'd lay my head down on your lap
I would not make a sound
And you would always sing this song to me
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be at your back
May the sun shine down warm upon your land
May the rain fall soft upon your face until we meet again May got hold you in the palm of his hand
Through the winter days our tree would shiver in the wind
Waiting for the warming touch of spring
I hold you in the firelight
We'd stare into the flame
And this is what you always used to sing
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be at your back
May the sun shine down warm upon your land
May the rain fall soft upon your face until we meet again
May god hold you in the palm of his hand (x2)
May the rain fall soft upon your face until we meet again
May god hold you in the palm of his hand
