July

july you've never seen the sunlight

so i'll tell you what we're gonna do

grab my hand, hold it as tight as you can

and don't let go

so we drove, we drove all night

you kept your eyes closed the whole time

and when we got there you were so suprised

"I have seen this before" you said

then you realized what i meant

it was beautiful

it was the kind of thing that makes six hour drives worth while

july you've never seen the stars fall

so tonight we're gonna sleep out on the lawn

the fireflies might kiss your cheek, but don't you worry, they're not mean

and the moon will be here all night to sing us both to sleep

july you've never understood life

so you read books and stay inside

well tomorrow i'm taking all your windows away

so you can feel the wind through your hair

so you'll touch the sky again

and i try my best to see

beauty in death love and living

i found it in these songs

it helps my heart go on

i'm gonna call this home

'cause it just feels right and i know i belong

won't you be my sunlight
