lyrics

The castle slips into the sea
To the sea
The riders call and whirl around
Whirl around
You take a photograph of me
Half of me
And laughter is the only sound
Only sound

Past and future worries simply melting away
On a summer's day

We lie in lilac summer haze
Summer haze
I sing a song with made-up words
Made-up rhymes
We walk the quiet evening ways
Evening ways
And talk of simple happy times
Happy times

Past and future worries simply melting away
On a summer's day

The summer rain on the dark streets
The gentle cries in the dark hours
The darkened room in the light house
The hush of leaves in the light wind
The taste of salt on the soft lips
The flower's glow on the warm face
The smell of sun in the warm air
The touch of hair on the hot day
The breath of you in the close kiss
The breath of you on my closed eyes
The breath of you

Past and future worries simply melting away
Living life and loving life in every way
On a summer's day

The summer rain on the dark streets
The gentle cries in the dark hours
The darkened room in the light house
The hush of leaves in the light wind
The taste of salt on the soft lips
The flower's glow on the warm face
The smell of sun in the warm air
The touch of hair on the hot day
The breath of you in the close kiss
The cool of you in the hot night
The night is still and we still hear
The summer rain on the dark streets
The gentle cries in the dark hours
The darkened room in the light house
The hush of leaves in the light wind
The taste of salt on the soft lips
The flower's glow on the warm face
The smell of sun in the warm air
The touch of hair on the hot day
The breath of you in the close kiss
The cool of you in the hot night
The breath of you, the breath of you
