She said I cannot tell you why, she said I'm in a rush

There are softer dreams for you to think about now love

Things that you have seen this night that run by that the river's flow

I can use you if you're in the flame, I'm a growin' old



And no this is not the summer dream she said

It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there



Well I've said I've sailed the frozen corners of the dark Atlantic Sea

And I drifted on the waves and the mirage beneath

And never have I felt such numb and pointless searchin' true

As when I set my eyes and torched the plans on the mark of you



And no this is not the summer dream she said

It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there



She said you follow me like sheep that think this king could do some harm

But I tell you boy I'm frightened still with a sister's heart

I set my eyes upon the shore whenever you wake up

I'm leavin' because you don't feel what you're dreamin' of



And no this is not the summer dream she said

It's just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there



But I will stand down in the hallway with no thought to leave the set

Of a movie I will sure as hell not end just yet

If pain and awful romance then this mornin' is for us

It will never ran and our last dream will leave this house



And no this is not the summer dream I said

It's just the drying of the lawns that want to leave us here

Oh it's the drying of the lawns that want to leave us here
