"Rocks and trees are all of me, rocks and trees are all of me, grass and dew are all of you, grass and dew are all of you"

"This is the middle of the song. It helps the others get along. Just like the stem between the flowers and the roots you know that this is the middle of the song"

"Quickly get you up and let ......... wander till you die you will be there and so will i"

I still know the tunes. It was really pretty. Unfortunately i cannot sing.

but I do not remember that. I do remember doing it, I think it is so familiar but not coming to me at the moment!

I can sing so many old girl scout songs but I can't remember what I played on my last symphony concert. Getting old! <3

The chorus was "honey have a <sniff> on me, honey have a <sniff> on me."

How times have changed.
