A summer breeze comes knocking again
I open up just to let in the sun
And all I hear are those fleeting tweeting notes they carry away
A half read book I place to the side
"Hey little guy, where on earth are you from" with a smile
And with me blindfolded I still know that it's 3 after noon
The sun's been nice the past few days
I sit around just to watch all the clouds
A lazy hazy blue sky time
This sighing air that's closing my eyes
A memory that just won't come
It's getting harder everyday
Cuz years and minutes all fly by
And just like that we're old and grown
Aah
Adult world plans to understand
The midnight walks, funny signals to talk
"Let's fight the day, it's war" we'd say
Hold out your lone hand and rise up against
It made no sense but went with it
The lonely hearts just too weak to resist
Lost as I was and never found
I couldn't take another round
Parting through waves in this tall field of grass
Glaring a hole through hazy sun
Shouting to me turning to your side
"Don't wanna be alone? Then come and don't!"
Even the things that I felt from before
Born in the noise that had knocked at my door
Fold in my mind and slowly flying out of sight
"Was it all a dream in the haze?"
A secret place for me and you
Where everyday was fun and new
A simple time played in our heads
We'll tell this story again
A jet stream shoots across the sky
"It's just so bright" we stare wide eyed
What did your face look like back then?
I don't know why, but I can't see it at all
Hazy days all around as they come billowing down
Back to page one where this story started really getting gory
"Please, give it back!" you screech and scream
"Stop this already" quite the plea
Oh you think that I care? Well life's just one fated snare
Welcome to horrible, pitiful, fictional
A welcomed pained reality
Ran through and soon had all passed me on by
Our chosen days go slow in pace
But any second could come falling down
Played overtime the past few days
Adults afraid and then looking away
I think somewhere along on the road
We realized a lot about...
Feeling the world going 'round and around
Seeing a dying sun beat down
Shining a haze as the rays give way
"Never forget but time to move ahead"
Tapping our feet, run to meet future days
Dreaming away of tomorrows we made
No going back, we're moving to that world ahead
"Change it knowing you're not alone"
"But know deep down, it's over now"
"Our secret place, our final page"
Lost as we were and what we found
We'll tell this story again
The lonely kids will take a stand
Make up their minds and make a plan
Day after day they turn the page
"We'll meet again someday"
"Refreshing, isn't it?" we say
A summer sky as clear as day
Let's breathe the air, try not to cry
It's time to say our goodbyes
A secret place for me and you
We laughed away the summertime blues
"Remember every page somewhere"
"And we might meet" so I will draw it again
Day after day
That "happiness" ah how strange it is, the feeling
And as tomorrow breaks, I hope you love it too
