Wistfully watch the moon rise
it’s almost getting full
the gravity of your heart on mine -
I can almost feel the pull
night is nearly fallen
in the indigo prairie sky --
with you, I wish I was, tonight
the fireflies, whispering
summer has arrived
I’d give a lot of summer dreams
just to sing you a lullaby
summer has arrived
the juice drips down my chin
another day to be amazed
at this world we live in
fireflies, whispering
how do they know I love you so?
I wrote this summer song tonight
because I wanted - just wanted -
you to know.
