lyrics

On those vintage days of June
The sky was worn and bruised
Like sleepless eyes
And gently spilled the rain
We were lush and bright
Like moths to a light
Our house of cards
Would never see the ground

Summer came and it
Broke upon us like
Roman candles in the sky
Trade your coins for a
Handful of wildflowers and
Let the summer rain
Sing you to sleep
Summer sing you to sleep




The promises to keep
Would run like rivers deep
Like letters sent
Adrift upon the wind
But seeds tend to grow
And you shall ever know
You were a lighted window
At the end of my street
