Baby come once or twice
The earth is moving and the sky sure looks nice
Holds her breath, until the magic ends.
He holds her now, the children cry
He does not understand she's of another mind
Holds her breath, keeps it all in.
Call it what you will, I can see the freeze
You've lost your faith in the summer breeze.
I know my words can't give you any peace
You've lost your faith in the summer breeze.
He sees her now, at the end of a rainbow
Her eyes are smiling but her heart is unstable,
Holds his breath, not to scare her away.
He's running blind, It's all he sees
The earth is moving real fast under his feet,
Holds his breath, they can't take it away.
Call it what you will, I can see the freeze
You've lost your faith in the summer breeze.
And my words won't give you any peace
You've lost your faith in the summer breeze.
