"The Last Summer" - Temporary Sanity

It's my last summer with you here,
With the first rains I'll disappear,
My tears will run down the slope,
Like a falling leaf, a far away hope.

I'm a winter person in a land by the sea,
But when this winter comes, I'll cease to be.
Melting slow, layer by layers,
Between will and won't and last prayers.

Remember you promised not to cry,
Cuz' the sky is big and the tears get dry,
Close your eyes when the first rain falls,
And think of me ……

I want to climb mountains because they're there,
And travel to lands over the sea,
To find if there's a life instead,
And if they go on living after they're dead.

It's my last summer with you here,
With the first rains I'll disappear.
Melting slow, layer by layers,
Between will and won't and last prayers.

Remember you promised not to cry,
Cuz' the sky is big and the tears get dry,
Close your eyes when the first rain falls,
And think of me ……
