HARVEST SEASON
Music & Lyrics by Heather Alexander

A snap's within the summer wind
It teases at the ear
With warming glow in fields below
The harvest season's here
Soon leaves shall yield a brilliant shield
Of copper, gold and bronze
And rivers strain 'gainst summer rain
As daylight later dawns

COME GATHER GOLDEN HONEY
COME REAP THE TENDER CORN
AND WITH ME LAY IN NEW MOWN HAY
BEFORE THE WINTER'S BORN!

Come take my hand and work the land
Come labor side by side
We'll thresh the wheat and try to beat
The summer's ebbing tide
Our bones may ache, our backs may break
But labor's been well done
Pain will displace in your embrace
As with the fading sun

With straw stacked deep and none to reap
I turn my eyes to you
Your breast laid bare to warm night air
And sparkling as with dew
You meet my gaze through twilight haze
As evening starts to fall
I slyly plead that we should heed
The harvest season's call!
