sophie kyle collins - summer song lyrics
i could be working on the greatest thing to ever come to life
but instead i wait for harder times
to get busy working overtime
but summer comes burning the treetops like wages, over and down
i try to change my mind
the trees here are mute and blind
so they flower at different times
i’m not who i pretend to think i am and it’s pretense
that keeps me impatient for the revealing of a plan
and i could use a humbling —
so summer comes turning the meaning in stages, waking ground —
i stay keen on loving
and the trees here believe they’re alone in the light
so they flower at different times
i see that spirit everywhere, i’m indiscriminate, in the thick of it
i see the long hair, and i get scared
it’s a romance with a silhouette
till summer comes incurring the feelings of ages, hear the sound —
there’s every route to
a lover from summers past
i had
a dream you said
“are you still too guilty for me to ask?
do you know i will never love you like that again?
like i did then?”
half+hearted at a stumbling block i stand
and trip, from the gravel, and the stone step, and the rock
earth where i lie and where i land
when summer’s done, prints in the evenings that follow, i’ll go on
i swear i’ll change my mind
me and my true love cry cause we flower at different times
