Summer Fly
Cheryl Wheeler

In another, younger day I could dream the time away

In the universe inside my room

And the world was really mine from June to September

And if it wasn’t really so I was lucky not to know

And I was lucky not to wonder why

'Cause a starry sky is all that I remember


A summer fly was buzzin’ every night when I was young

In the gentle world my child-like senses knew

And the world was just my cousin and the wind was just the tongue

In the voice my lonely moments listened to


And I look at me today, all the dreams have gone away

And I’m where I never thought I’d be

Seeing things I never thought I’d see happening to me

And I lay awake at night till the darkness goes to light


Hearing voices calling out my name

Droning over and again the same message through me


Cryin’ who’s your partner, who’s your darlin’ who’s your baby now?

Who wakes up at night to pull you in?

It don’t matter, you just make her lonely anyhow

Don’t know why you even try to win


Oh this’ll never fly, get out while you can

Look into the mirror say it’s not the same again

Every single time, things just fall apart

Slamming door, slipping pride, sad and angry heart
