"Holly Park" lyrics

"Holly Park"

Thinking back a long long ways
A song we used to sing yesterday
The time is right to lift your eyes
How can you go wrong singing a song from yesterday?

I used to lay beneath the shady tree in Holly Park
Laying on the grass and lay my head back on the bark and float away
We're sipping soda, watch the day go by
And dreamed I

I used to swing upon the swings at Holly Park
I used to quietly sing until it was dark and then go home
We're all alone and watch the TV screen
Read a magazine

Oh, Holly Park is so beautiful with the flowers in bloom
Holly Park is so beautiful when the children play at noon
Holly Park is so beautiful any time of the year

In the good old summertime the fireflies would light up the night
When the winter came around you'd always find me by fireside

In the good old summertime the fireflies would light up the night
When the winter came around you'd always find me by fireside

I used to listen to the birds as they [whistling]
I used to remember what I'd heard and I'd [whistling] back at them
Well, time and time again they'd fly away
What did I say?

Oh, Holly Park is so beautiful with the flowers in bloom
Holly Park is so beautiful when the children play at noon
Holly Park is so beautiful any time of the year
Always dear to my, always dear to my, always dear to my ...

Thinking back a long long ways
A song we used to sing yesterday
The time is right, lift your eyes
How can you go wrong singing a song?
Thinking back a long long ways
A song we used to sing yesterday
The time is right, lift your eyes
How can you go wrong singing a song?
Thinking back a long long ways
A song we used to sing yesterday
The time is right, lift your eyes
How can you go wrong singing a song?
