Summer Song Lyrics - Singles - The Anywheres

Long Island sun 

It wakes me up, 

sneaks from the east into my window up above 

and I wish it were you 

crawling through that pane 

for that I'd trade this sunshine 

for a week of rain 

It's a small world, or so they so 

But mostly it feels large 

When we walk through these deserts of sorrow 

Waiting for the next mirage 

On Southern Parkway, 

There's a traffic jam 

Thousands of cars are making love 

while the drivers throw their hands 

The sun beats down on 

everything and everyone 

but I wish you were here with me 

melting under this Long Island sun 

It's up above the world so high 

ticking like a bomb 

while half the world is looking away 

with their TV sets on 

Next time you visit Long Island 

we'll go walking on the beach 

Even if it's pouring down on us, 

in my mind we'll never leave 

You bring your pipe 

and I'll bring my lungs 

and we'll see if all our questions 

get answered from above 

The sun's painting diamonds 

across the ocean's skin 

When you see that open window 

I hope you let yourself in 

It's a spoonful of sugar they say 

that helps the drugs go down 

You're the sweetness in my sunspots, baby 

you're the swings on my playground 

The next time you visit Long Island 

we'll go swimming at Jones Beach 

and even if it's pouring down on us, 

in my mind we'll never leave
