Sleep, my darling

The sky is darkening in the east

Hear the whispers

In the grass and in the leaves

Watch the sun gilding the vesper air

As time weaves silver in your hair

Summer lullaby

Summer's flowing by

Dream of summer

Feel the south wind on your skin

Flowers smell of honey

And warmth still lingers here

August heat flares up like embers

In the cool breath of September

Summer lullaby

Summer's flowing by

Summer lullaby

Summer's flowing by

Summer lullaby

(I can hear it in the leaves)

Summer's flowing by

(I can feel the way it leaves)

Summer lullaby

(I can taste it on my lips)

Summer's flowing by

(Running through my fingertips)

Summer lullaby

(That cicadas calmly sing)

Summer's flowing by

(Its caress upon my skin)

Summer lullaby

(I can hear it in the leaves)

Summer's flowing by

(I can feel the way it leaves)
