Rapture and Revelry

Once upon an evening remember, when all the world was new,
 There was me in the arms of the winter when with the Spring came you,
 I was a child of September, while you were born in June,
 You were swaddled in sun, I was bathed in the moon,
 Rapture and revelry, Oh like you never see,
 Everyone loves you on opening night,
 Rapture and revelry, Oh! Just the remedy,
 I've got a feeling that we'll be alright.
 Youth made a vow to protect you, from year to careless year,
 Stitched a seam, hemmed you in, kept you reckless, no guilt, no grief, no fear,
 Should time try it's best to deject you, take all that you hold dear,
 Have not hint of a heavy heart, I'll still be here,
 Oh what else could I do, Oh what else?
 There were questions and quarrels and resting on laurels,
 Well what was I to do?
 Oh what else could I say?
 What questions and quarrels could question such morals?
 Well what was I to say.
 I say!
