When you see over you
A sky that's always blue
That's Somerset, that's Somerset
Somewhere the river flows
And apple blossom grows
That's Somerset, that's Somerset
Where honeysuckle blooms
The countryside perfume
You long in vain to walk again
That little winding lane
If ever you would find
And leave the world behind
That's Somerset, that's Somerset
