Summertime is made for secrets
That's why doors get swollen shut
As much as I say I love you
Know I love you twice as much
When the winter comes there will be space under the kitchen door
Everywhere you walk will lift some coldness from the tile floor
Sun can burn and shade can fade the colors of the brightest bloom I see
I find it's dangerous to take too much of anything
Seasons leave us wanting, waiting for the next big change to come
I have never made a promise quite as big to anyone
Fall is made for slow advances
That's why leaves are shy to turn
Blushing red just at the center
'Til they crumble up and burn
When the springtime comes there will be dust upon the window sill
Every cup of coffee that you drink will send away a chill
Sun can burn and shade can fade the colors of the brightest bloom I see
I find it's dangerous to take too much of anything
Seasons leave us wanting, waiting for the next big change to come
I have never made a promise quite as big to anyone
When the year is over and the summer has come 'round again
I will read you secrets from my journal that I wrote in pen
We will dream of leaving winter, buy a villa out in Spain
Always talk of running out but in the end we will remain
Sun can burn and shade can fade the colors of the brightest bloom I see
I find it's dangerous to take too much of anything
Seasons leave us wanting, waiting for the next big change to come
I have never made a promise quite as big to anyone
A photo, a train set
A song that I once knew
I'll let go, but not yet
I'll always think of you
