The Summer Thief

from The Summer Thief by Brant Satala

lyrics

As the rain came down
I pulled her close and kissed her
The taste of Spring had faded from her lips
With that farewell touch
She stole from me the summer
And left me with a tempest in it’s place

The window is open
And I have been hoping
That she’d come through
And give it back to me (hold C)
June, July and August
Hung like wind chimes in a storm
And rang as loud as broken wedding bells
When the fruit is gone to ripen
I will climb up in that tree
Was a bitter fruit to Adam, but the kiss of Eve so sweet

The window is open
And I have been hoping
That she’d come through
And give it back to me
The door is closing
And time is frozen
The blame is all on the
Summer thief

Well, she’s wandered away
She took the sun
She took the stars
She took the universe, and left me in the dark
She's only running from herself and won't get far

The window is open
And I have been hoping
That she’d come through
And give it back to me
The door is closing
And time is frozen
The blame is all on the
Summer thief (Ooooo ooo ooo x1)
The door is closing
And time is frozen
The blame is all on the summer thief (Ooo ooo ooo out)
