[Verse 1]

To see age in a flower

The dawns are speeding up

You know it'll hurt you

Feel all of a sudden

Tired and teary-eyed

You knew it'd kill you

[Verse 2]

Don't wear a tie that'll choke you

To death in the city

Take it off and forget

Spare the fret that'll make you

Miss all of Summer

Sweat it out and forgive

[Verse 3]

To see loss in a shower

The petals turn to mush

It still disappoints you

Then less of a sudden

You wire your weary mind

To let it deceive you

[Verse 4]

Don't force a smile that'll make you

Resent the city

Play it soft and forgive

Keep the frown that'll make you

Squint in the Summer

Play it slow and forget
