Lyrics
The sun's a golden king
High in the air
It melts the clocks
It tangles my hair
Shadows short
They whisper and flee
Time slows down
By the old oak tree
A ripple breaks the mirror wide
A fish jumps
The world collides
Down by the lake of fireflies
We count the hours in glowing skies
The heat wraps us
It never lies
It's summer's truth
No alibis
The sand sticks warm to my damp bare feet
Cicadas buzz
Their endless beat
The water hugs
It's soft and clear
I lose the days
I lose the years
Down by the lake of fireflies
We count the hours in glowing skies
The heat wraps us
It never lies
It's summer's truth
No alibis
The moon creeps in
A thief in white
Stealing the sun
But leaving light
We laugh
We run
We breathe it in
The summer hum
Beneath our skin
