Nonny Nonny

Summer warm and lazy

Lemon sun and hazy, remember?

Popsicle red on my chin

Bikes and plastic army men and no sign of September

Something in my seven years was telling me

To thank the Author of such a biography

Nonny nonny odle'ee, river washes over me

Up for air and carry me away

Nonny nonny odle'igh, run the earth and watch the sky

Praying hard and waiting for the day

Nonny nonny odle'ay

My adolescent 70's

Reads just like the Pevensies adventures

'Cause every perfect now and then

I caught a glimpse of Aslan's mane and I longed for His treasure

Something in His mystery was drawing me

To love the Author of my own biography

Nonny nonny odle'ee, river washes over me

Up for air and carry me away

Nonny nonny odle'igh, run the earth and watch the sky

Praying hard and waiting for the day

Nonny nonny odle'ay

All grown up and living fine

Biographies all intertwined with billions

And soon He turns the final page

We'll look the Author in the face then the book really begins

'Cause something tells me all these years of memories

Are only the first sentence of eternity

Nonny nonny odle'ee, river washes over me

Up for air and carry me away

Nonny nonny odle'igh, run the earth and watch the sky

Praying hard and waiting for the day

Nonny nonny odle'ee, river washes over me

Up for air and carry me away

Nonny nonny odle'igh, run the earth and watch the sky

Praying hard and waiting for the day

Nonny nonny odle'ay

Praying hard and waiting for the day

Nonny nonny odle'ay

Praying hard and waiting for the day
