"Summer & Smoke" lyrics

"Summer & Smoke"

You came to me this morning with red eyes glowing
Like my old pictures of you
And I love you in ways I find too complicated
I can't take my eyes off you

May I speak with you openly from here
In this light, a kind of blue?
If I don't say it now you could be gone forever
Without knowing the truth

Wait, where do you go? Can't I come too?
I don't feel alive, but when I'm with you, I really do
I need you

I still remember the Summer & Smoke
The ocean breeze on lips bruised
The person that you once knew fell into a fire
Blinded by the promise of you

May I speak with you openly from here
In this light, a kind of blue?
If I don't say it now you could be gone forever
Without knowing the truth

Wait, please don't go, can't I come too?
I don't feel alive, but when I'm with you, I really do
I need you

Sharing smokes out your bathroom window
I was ashamed of how you made my skin glow
I fell asleep as the smoke kept climbing higher and higher
My heart was the house you left burning in that fire
I don't feel alive, but when I'm with you, I really do

I really do
I really do, do, do
I need you
