Linger

Linger

One of my favorite songs for closing campfire! To this day it still brings back memories of that last night at camp, wanting to linger all summer and not wanting to say goodbye to new friends. Even worse, that last night after working the whole summer as a counselor and really not wanting to go back to real life after 2 1/2 magical months in nature!

Mmm Mmm I want to linger,
Mmm Mmm a little longer,
Mmm Mmm a little longer here with you.

Mmm Mmm it’s such a perfect night,
Mmm Mmm it’s doesn’t seem quite right,
Mmm Mmm that this she be my last with you.

Mmm Mmm and come September,
Mmm Mmm we’ll still remember,
Mmm Mmm our camping days and friendship true.

Mmm Mmm and as the years go by,
Mmm Mmm I’ll think of you and sigh,
Mmm Mmm this is good night and not goodbye.

Mmm Mmm I want to linger,
Mmm Mmm a little longer,
Mmm Mmm a little longer here with you.
