left behind when summer's over

in quiet lineups by the lake

cheating hearts descend like clouds of falling leaves

to lie and rot and wait for rain

summer heat will you drain your blood from me

into lawns and limpid pools where your kiss was young and cruel

cut by cut and play by play it will always be this way

summer love

if i could only hold your heart

and never beat again

someone's breath against your shoulder

someone's voice to say your name

just as long as someone's there to break your fall

longer shadows shorter days

if i could only hold your heart

i'd never beat again
