Middle of Summer (First Cut)

[Verse 1]

When the moon fell in love with the sun

All was golden in the sky

All was golden when the day met the night

When the sun found the moon

She was drinking tea out in a garden

Under the green umbrella trees

In the middle of summer

When the moon found the sun

He looked like he was barely hanging on

While her eyes saved his life

In the middle of summer

[Chorus]

In the middle of summer

In the middle of summer

In the middle of summer (oh oh oh oh)

[Verse 2]

Well, he was just hanging around

Then he fell in love

And he didn't know how

But he couldn't get out

Just hanging around

And he fell in love

[Chorus]

In the middle of summer

In the middle of summer (oh oh oh oh)

[Verse 3]

When the Moon fell in love with the Sun

All was golden in the sky

All was golden when the day met the night

So he said, "Would it be alright

If we just sat and talked for a little while

If in exchange for your time

I give you this smile?"

So she said, "Hey, that's okay

As long as you can make a promise not to break

My little heart and

Leave me all alone in the summer"

[Bridge]

Dreamed this dream when seventeen

In a garden under green umbrella trees

While we dreamed through the wildest dreams

In the middle of summer

[Chorus]

In the middle of summer

In the middle of summer

In the middle of summer (oh oh oh oh)

[Outro]

When the moon fell in love with the sun
