Album: The Breadwinner
Airplanes fly over in the night.
Lit up, they blink across the sky.
And voices murmur down below
The streetlights and the dark windows,
And cars thump down the empty street,
In summer in the heat.
He clings to me with burning skin,
Covers thrown off the bed's end.
And cats are covering my feet,
And his arms are surrounding me
In salty sleep, so sweaty sweet
In summer in the heat.
Daylight, don't come and spoil this.
Don't take this strange paralysis
Where I lie still and feel the fan
Blow down on my heavy limbs,
And my lover breathes so peacefully
In summer in the heat,
And my lover breathes so peacefully
In summer in the heat.
