Summer Song

I sit alone upon the daybreak

Past the stars, before the sun

Summer falls upon forgotten orchards

And the long forgotten moments yet to come

I wait as time unwinds to silence

Watching freedom grow from seed

The earth still turns outside my heartbeat

But I'm liquid and I'm skipping on the sea

In a dream, the pain of living

Where the more you give, the more you owe

Abating now with the grey uncertain time

When people left me one by one to stand alone

The cold mechanic landscape

Will freeze itself away

But not before I've handed in my see through mask

And get in beyond today

Like a child, I drink April

For all I leave behind is gone

And from the frozen wilderness of winter

A quiet mind returns to summer song

I wait as time unwinds to silence

Watching freedom grow from seed

The earth still turns outside my heartbeat

But I'm liquid and I'm skipping on the sea

I sit alone upon the daybreak

Past the stars, before the sun

Summer falls upon forgotten orchards

And the long forgotten moments yet to come
