Airplanes fly over in the night
Lit up, they blink across the sky
And voices murmur down below
The streetlights and the dark windows
And cars thump down the empty street
In summer in the heat
He clings to me with burning skin
Covers thrown off the bed's end
And cats are covering my feet
And his arms are surrounding me
In salty sleep, so sweaty sweet
In summer in the heat
Daylight, don't come and spoil this
Don't take this strange paralysis
Where I lie still and feel the fan
Blow down on my heavy limbs
And my lover breathes so peacefully
In summer in the heat
And my lover breathes so peacefully
In summer in the heat
