The Drying Of The Lawns lyrics

She said "I cannot tell you why", she said "I'm in a rush" There are softer dreams for you to think about now love Things that you have seen this night that runs by that river's flow I can't use you if you're in the flame, I'm a growin' old And no, this is not the summer dream she said It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there Well, I've said I've sailed the frozen corners of the dark Atlantic Sea And I drifted on the waves and the mirage beneath And never have I felt such numb and pointless searchin' true As when I set my eyes and torched up lands on the mark of you And no, this is not the summer dream she said It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there She said "you follow me like sheep that think this king could do some harm But I tell you, boy, I'm frightened still with a sister's arm I set my eyes upon the shore whenever you wake up I'm leavin', 'cause you don't feel what you're dreamin' of" And no this is not the summer dream she said It's just the drying of the lawns I'm going to leave out there But I will stand down in the hallway with no thought to leave the set Of a movie I will sure as hell not end just yet If evenings are for romance then this mornin' is for us It will never rain then our last dream would deceive this house And, no, this is not the summer dream I said It's just the drying of the lawns that going to leave us here Oh, it's the drying of the lawns that going to leave us here
