We cruse high in the summer sky 
I believe everything you say 
'Cause you're not frightened 
The way I've been so 
So I follow you 
Just in case you lose your way 
So glad you let me stay around 
The chain link fence you climbed 
To make forbidden lakes our own 
Yours and mine 
And with ease of the sea gulls 
We cut the engines and we cruise high 
In the summer sky, baby 
Now I could speak to everything 
But there's no room for my voice 
When sweet feedback 
Is jumpin' through the hoop of your earring 
There goes the phone 
And then you're off again 
On what the caller brings you 
So I went and trashed myself at the bar 
Confused for nothin' 
Thinkin' you'd be there 
I'm so embarrassed 'cause it's you 
Who comes to take care of me 
Shamblin' home again with you to lead 
And it's not the way I wanna go 
And I'm mad at you and I'm mad at me 
Talking endlessly, not a kind word to say 
Till your amber beads of wisdom come 
And I want to write 'em down 
Just the way you said it, oh no 
So I could keep it always, always 
I can't forget the smell 
Of summer trees at midnight 
Bendin' backwards to please the wind 
You touch the tattoo of the sun 
On a warm belly that once 
Carried a baby for a while 
Then let that crackled leather jacket round you fold 
Red face saints monogrammed in gold 
And in this beauty 
I would not go any further 
'Cause I suddenly remembered 
We can't live this way forever 
Idle daylight, oh 
I've never caught you in a lie 
Not until now 
I feel somehow 
I felt the passing of these days goin' by 
What will you do when the feeling 
That you have is through 
I need to know 
'Cause I'll never stop hangin' on to you 
And it's times like this that I dread 
When there's everything to say 
And nothing left 
To be said 
To be said 
And it makes me sad
