Summer Fly

(album: Celtic Treasure - 2007)

In another younger day I could dream the time away
In the universe inside my room
And the world was really mine from June to September
And if it wasn't really so I was lucky not to know
And I was lucky not to wonder why
'cause summertime is all that I remember

A summer fly was buzzing every night
When I was young
In the gentle world my childlike senses knew
And the world was just my cousin
And the wind was just the tongue
In the voice my lonely moments listened to

And I look at me today all the dreams have gone away
And I'm where I never thought I'd be
Seeing things I never thought I'd see happen to me
And I lie awake at night till the darkness goes to light
Hearing voices calling out my name
Droning over and again the same message to me

Crying who's your partner, who's your darling, who's your baby now?
Who wakes up at night to pull you in?
It don't matter, you just make her lonely anyhow
Don't know why you even try to win

[instrumental break]

Crying who's your partner, who's your darling, who's your baby now?
Who wakes up at night to pull you in?
It don't matter, you'll just make her lonely anyhow
I don't know why you even try to win

Crying who's your partner, who's your darling, who's your baby now?
Who wakes up at night to pull you in?
It don't matter, you'll just make him lonely anyhow
Don't know why you even try to win
