IT WAS A VERY HOT SUMMER (words to a friend)

Sweet friend, the house didn't burn down!

It was just a very hot Summer.

Fires catching in the forests around us;

inflamed hearts, hot tears and sweat...

Fire spreading throughout the waters inside;

boiling our blood, numbing the fears,

heightening the senses.

It was a very hot Summer!

Now through Fall and Winter you go

with a tan on your skin, and a chill in your soul.

And there was just another lover...

And the house didn't burn down!

Until when this tan your skin will cover

who knows!?...

But, there are other lovers

and love flowing in this world.

Get back in the wild;

- it is almost Spring time again -

Clean the ashes, plant your flowers.

That was just a passing lover...

what is real will remain.
