[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, & Linda Ronstadt]
The mid-summer sun shines but dim
The fields try in vain to look gay
But when I was happy with him
December was pleasant as may
[Verse 1: Dolly Parton]
There once was a time he and I
Picked flowers to brain in my hair
And the songbirds would sing a sweet song
Of love that was tender and fair
[Verse 2: Dolly Parton]
No difference did seasons make when
Our love was as warm as the sun
It mattered not whether the snow
Or green grass kissed the fields where we'd run
[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, & Linda Ronstadt]
Now, the mid-summer sun shines but dim
The fields try in vain to look gay
But when I was happy with him
December was pleasant as may
[Verse 3: Dolly Parton]
Sweet flowers, sweet birds, and sweet songs
Have now lost their sweetness to me
Forever my darlin' is gone
And forever heartbroken I'll be
The mid-summer sun shines but dim
The fields try in vain to look gay
But when I was happy with him
December was pleasant as may
[Verse 1: Dolly Parton]
There once was a time he and I
Picked flowers to brain in my hair
And the songbirds would sing a sweet song
Of love that was tender and fair
[Verse 2: Dolly Parton]
No difference did seasons make when
Our love was as warm as the sun
It mattered not whether the snow
Or green grass kissed the fields where we'd run
[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, & Linda Ronstadt]
Now, the mid-summer sun shines but dim
The fields try in vain to look gay
But when I was happy with him
December was pleasant as may
[Verse 3: Dolly Parton]
Sweet flowers, sweet birds, and sweet songs
Have now lost their sweetness to me
Forever my darlin' is gone
And forever heartbroken I'll be
