Here's a hymn to welcome in the day Heralding a summer's early sway And all the bulbs all comin' in To begin The thrushes' bleeding battle with the wrens Disrupts my reverie again Pegging clothing on the line Training jasmine how to vine Up the arbor to your door And more Standing on the landing with the war You shouldered all the night before But once upon it The yellow bonnets Garland all the lawn You were waking Day was breaking A panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill A barony of ivy in the trees Expanding out its empire by degrees And all the branches burst abloom In the boom Heaven sent this cardinal maroon To decorate our living room But once upon it The yellow bonnets Garland all the lawn You were waking Day was breaking A panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill And years from now when this old light Isn't ambling anymore Will I bring myself to write "I give my best to Springville Hill" But once upon it The yellow bonnets Garland all the lawn You were waking Day was breaking A panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill And summer comes to Springville Hill
Great song... I appreciate the lyrics on the bottom, but if you're going to go through the trouble of including them in the video, you should go to their site and find the actual lyrics instead of guessing.
Why does this song make me so emotional? What a stunning piece of work.
Beautiful song. The Decemberists are a great band.
I took my guitar to school today. And my 2nd period teacher played this and that's how I found it. 😁
Badass
You have a very cool teacher
"Heaven sent this cardinal, maroon
To decorate our living room"
My favorite part
At first listen, I thought the lyric was... Heaven sent this card in all maroon.

Here's a hymn to welcome in the day
Heralding a summer's early sway
And all the bulbs all comin' in
To begin
The thrushes' bleeding battle with the wrens
Disrupts my reverie again
Pegging clothing on the line
Training jasmine how to vine
Up the arbor to your door
And more
Standing on the landing with the war
You shouldered all the night before
But once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the lawn
You were waking
Day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill
A barony of ivy in the trees
Expanding out its empire by degrees
And all the branches burst abloom
In the boom
Heaven sent this cardinal maroon
To decorate our living room
But once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the lawn
You were waking
Day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill
And years from now when this old light
Isn't ambling anymore
Will I bring myself to write
"I give my best to Springville Hill"
But once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the lawn
You were waking
Day was breaking
A panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill
And summer comes to Springville Hill
I always thought the line was "Heaven sent this card in all maroon to decorate our living room.".

It's "Springville Hill" not "Hills" and "Garland all along" ("in a line" dose not rhyme with "song")
It's "But once upon it
The yellow bonnets
Garland all the lawn"
*Barony; rise, not rieyeye...
