The Meadow - Laura Veirs

We went to the meadow

No walls, no ads, no black balloons

Waving from the chain link fence

No bricks, no windows

Except for the two gold ones

You showed me, my friend

We went to the meadow

And we knew it wouldn’t last

It was beautiful

We went to the meadow

No fear, no confusion, just a sliver of a moon

Cheering us from out in the blue

No hate, just spring’s young light green leaves

Showing us what life can do

We went to the meadow

We went to the meadow

And we knew it wouldn’t last

It was beautiful

We knew it wouldn’t last

It was beautiful

We went to the meadow

We went to the meadow
