Summer of love

Summer of Love

Summer melts on my tongue, the raspberries sweet,

I burn in a gentle fever,

When your shoulder brushes mine.

Every moment is summer,

Your kiss lingers on the sheets,

I wake you slowly,

Hoping you’ll catch me at the door.

The city beats in a slow rhythm,

We share a golden fried dough,

I haven’t tasted a thing,

For I am utterly in love with you.

A golden haze drifts before my eyes,

Softly, lightly—

Every single moment.

Love, love,

Love, love,

You are mine,

Love, love,

Love, love,

You are mine.

I’ll taste you at morning, sip you at night,

Pour you over me,

You wash me gently, I know,

I give you all of me,

If you wish.

Summer lingers as we light a few cigarettes,

The smoke drifts lazily toward our harbor.

Every moment is summer,

I feel your arm embrace me,

Leaning back, I wait for you,

The key turns in the lock,

And the city slowly drifts to sleep.

I see drowsiness in your eyes,

I haven’t eaten a thing,

For I am completely in love with you.

A golden haze floats before me,

Softly, lightly—

Every single moment.

Love, love,

Love, love,

You are mine,

Love, love,

Love, love,

You are mine.

I’ll taste you at morning, sip you at night,

Pour you over me,

You wash me gently, I know,

I give you all of me,

If you wish.
