Thirty years, Linda, at the town library You knew each kid by name Every overdue book had a story Tonight we turn the page for you
Linda, this room is singing your name Let every shelf hold the sound Thirty years of names you remembered Now hear your own come back around
The due date cards kept turning You knew which books were late But every kid who crossed that doorway Heard their own name from you
Linda, this room is singing your name Let every shelf hold the sound Thirty years of names you remembered Now hear your own come back around
Tonight the whole room sings it back The library echoes your name
Linda, this room is singing your name Let every shelf hold the sound Thirty years of names you remembered Now hear your own come back around
Linda, take our thanks into tomorrow
