Bye bye bye summer,
we'll meet again 9 months from now,
when spring brings you forth.

Waiting for the mail,
patience is not my virtue,
when will it arrive?

Helpless and sunken
Caught by a net
Everything is possible
Beside them Gimli stood with his stout legs apart, wielding his dwarf-axe. The bow of Legolas was singing.

Of another universe
Stealing us from home...

The dreams I lived here
Come flooding back like sunlight
Reborn after storm.

Til the spring, dreamer
The world was fair in Durin's Day.
