So come the summer I wilt
I am a shadow and I slide over borders
Like loose leaves on the last of the breeze
So if you're lying awake
(And no-one sleeps in this heat)
I've got this memory of somewhere I swear I've never been
So I'm calling it a dream, or something in between
Like fantasy, just an island shy
When I close my eyes,
there's the shore, there's the sky, and there's you
I guess we're never alone
We speak through satellites and I trip over timezones
Whenever I get pictures from you
So is your view worth the rent?
(Are you not sleeping again?)
I've got this memory of some place I swear we've never been
And I'm taking us back, off the map
Like fantasy, just a wifi beach
When I cover my eyes,
there's the tide, there's the breeze, and there's you
