Thirty Years Begin Now

Rick Litvin, Lucy Kaplansky

30 years have passed and we’re here again
In your childhood yard, at childhood’s end
We the branches we the leaves
We that remain of our families

It was over here we planted a tree
A promise of our life to be
So we stood beneath an antique quilt
Our multithreaded canopy

EE Cummings words were read
I thank you god for this amazing day
For the leaping greenly spirits of trees
Inside behind my eyes I prayed

CHORUS
Here we stand again
On this changing ground
As 30 years end
30 years begin now

Then I sang with the band Embraceable You
And all the longing of Someday Soon
And all I’d longed for was coming true
Down the toughest road I would follow you

The last song was Ashokan Farewell
I took off my shoes and danced with you
To that sad bluegrass melody
Old things end with something new

We drove again our open road
And nothing was the same
On my hand was your gold ring
In my heart a promise I’d never break

CHORUS

Oh this is living ground
And only this moment matters now
And what I feel for you today
And the spirit of trees
And the promise I made

CHORUS
