If Things Were Perfect - Intellectual

[Refrain: Willie Hutch]

Give me summer

Broken darkness, my cold end

I look for places I've never seen

Nothing moves but the quiet on the street

Now I open my eyes to this

Isolated walking, long, hard hours

Winter cold just brings me winter showers

It's so brutal with the cold sky

Wrapped in cold late at night

Give me summer

Come clean, there's no sun yet

The only lights here are made

I can't speak, I can't hear, but I know I'm real

There's no warm here anyway

The darkest light's before the dawn

You remember the sun, but it sank

In the water that eats the light

Wrapped in cold, late at night

Give me summer

I open my eyes, it's cold

The only souls go by

Lift the bridge out of the water

The stone black light

Living is easy when it's night

The cold has covered the rain

I can see forever, to the deep

Wrapped in cold, late at night

Give me summer
