Here Comes the Summer

Last day in May, the afternoon

Remember?

Black marks off charcoal from the dune

Remember?

I thought it wouldn't be too soon

We'll wait at least until it's June

The twenty-ninth of March it rained

Remember?

You looked so sad that I explained

Remember?

You knew it wouldn't be too soon

We'll have to wait until it's June

I've been waiting since I don't know when

And now it finally seems about to start

I swear, I swear that I will do my part

December dark at six o'clock

Remember?

The freezing wind gives you a shock

Remember?

You knew it wouldn't be too soon

We'll have to wait until it's June

October damp on down the street

Remember?

The sodden leaves stuck to your feet

Remember?

You knew it wouldn't be too soon

We'll have to wait until it's June

I've been waiting since I don't know when

And now it finally seems about to start

I swear, I swear that I will do my part

July the third, we stayed up late

Remember?

And thought how long we'd have to wait

Remember?

It'll be so long until it's soon

It'll be so long until it's June
