GUEST,Geraint 'Singing Together' - BBC Song Booklets (119* d) RE: 'Singing Together' 1958 UK 31 Mar 13


My fiance went to school in the '80s with a music teacher who played these songs on the piano and taught her students to sing along.

She must have carefully saved and preserved the Singing Together books.

There is one song in particular that my better half often sings to herself but we can't find the music, full lyrics or even title anywhere.

This is how she remembers it from the start:

"Take grasses and flowers on midsummer night and bind them into your hair
Laugh up at the man in the moon shining bright down over the pine filled air
Tonight you shall dance on the shores of the lake
With swimming and singing until the daybreak..."

Does anyone know the name of the song? Or have the music?
    Hi, Geraint - please follow this thread over the next few days, and I'm sure somebody will answer.
