Story behind the song
Written for a girl called Holly who I worked with in Russia, who became a friend. We spent quite a few minutes chatting over the week
Lyrics
Holly's Song
Verse 1
Ginger hair, sweet
Eyes of china blue
That’s what I saw
When I looked at you
And I never saw a tear come to your eyes
No I never saw a frown upon your face
I only ever saw your bright eyes shine
All the while within our summer place
Chorus
While the sun burned down on us
Summer never seemed end
While the sun burned down on us
You and I became friends
Verse 2
Sitting on the porch
Day after day
Never at a loss for words
We had loads to say
And I never heard a word upon those lips
That wasn’t full of grace
I only ever heard your words build up
The times we met within our summer place
While the sun burned down on us
Summer never seemed end
While the sun burned down on us
You and I became friends
Verse 3
Sitting there
Beneath the starlit sky
Sharing thoughts, and deeds
As time sped by
And I never sensed regret at any time
No I could never feel a trace
It felt so right, to be so far from home
Giving of ourselves within our summer place
While the moon shined down on us
I wished days would never end
While the moon shone down us
I loved the times that we would spend
Verse 4
Sat in an airport
Many miles away
We watched a little girl
Begin to play
Then I watched with admiration
And a great big smile upon my face
As you entertained a new friend
From our sweet summer place
Chorus 4
Like all good and perfect things
Our short week it had to end
Now when suns or moons shine down on me
I always think of you my friend
