"Love Is Lighter Than Air" lyrics

"Love Is Lighter Than Air"

Summer, summer, summer
Slowly turned into fall
Me and my baby doll
Never went to the beach

Somewhere, somewhere, somewhere
Was a place we could run
On the sand with the sun
Always just out of reach

Somewhere sunny summer's
Marching to a different drummer
Singing, "Summer, summer, summer's
Gonna turn into fall."
You and your baby doll
Better go to the beach

'Cause love is lighter than air
It floats away if you let go
Love is lighter than air
It rises through the falling snow

A crime, crime, crime
Sin and illness is time
Neither reason nor rhyme
Can obstruct his bad dance

The nasty little swine
Slipped us mickeys in wine
Wove his hair into twine
And then tied our hands

We're forced to watch him wriggle
And endure his fulsome giggle
And his mime, mime, mime, unforgivable mime
Our one chance is to climb
Into blimps of romance

'Cause love is lighter than air
It floats away if you let go
Love is lighter than air
It rises through the falling snow

Love is lighter than air
It floats away if you let go
Love is lighter than air
It rises through the falling snow

Love is lighter than air
It floats away if you let go
Love is lighter than air
It rises through the falling snow
