Sweet Summer Sigh


Breezy, balmy love,
In your realm my soul delights;
Let me dwell beside you evermore.
Sunlit, silent love,
Lead me to your blissful heights;
Let me glimpse that soul-reviving shore.

Oh, lift me high; 
Change my point of view.
I'll reach the sky
And float away with you.

And I'll leave behind my woeful defenses,
As your sweet love overwhelms my senses...

Like a soothing summer lullabye,
Like a hazy daydream in July,
Like a sanctuary in the sky,
Like a salty sea's sweet summer sigh.

Timeless, tender love;
Spirit-wind, I must confess:
Without you my soul's a des'late place.
Hearty, hope-hued love;
Come warm the cold, colorless,
Wintry world within me with your grace.

Oh, lift me high; 
Change my point of view.
I'll reach the sky
And float away with you.

And I'll leave behind my woeful defenses,
As your sweet love overwhelms my senses...

Like a soothing summer lullabye,
Like a hazy daydream in July,
Like a sanctuary in the sky,
Like a salty sea's sweet summer sigh.

Like a soothing summer lullabye,
Like a hazy daydream in July,
Like a sanctuary in the sky,
Like a salty sea's sweet summer sigh.
