Verse 1
I don’t know if you’ve noticed
But there’s not a lot of colour
Around this time of year.
And maybe it’s these grey skies
Or maybe it’s town
But there doesn’t seem to be much life around
These days.
Chorus
So I’ll meet you around the corner
In the middle of this dead summer
Where the sun is never out.
You’ll take me for walks along the flat beaches
And we'll go drinking
When the street lights go out.
We’ll lie on our backs
And look up at airplanes
And say we’ll be out of here one day.
But right now
I’m just happy
Laughing with you
In the middle of this dead summer.
Verse 2
Until school goes back we won’t see anyone but each other
But that’s alright with me.
As we go to the local pool
Floating with dead leaves
And you’ll push me in.
And I’ll scream and I’ll splash
And pull you in as well.
Here are our little splinters of joy
In the middle of this dead summer.
Chorus
Bridge
And we’ll make plans in the backyard tent
Saying “We’ll leave the first chance we get”
And never come back again
But right now
Right now
Right in this moment
I’m just happy
Spending this dead summer with you
