Sun digs its heels to taunt you
But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same

Days fade into a watercolour blur
Memories (1)________ and haunt you
But look (2)________ the lake, shimmering like smoke
Rises the moon
Oh-oh, close your weary eyes
I promise you that soon the (3)____________ comes
To (4)____________ (5)____________ summer skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Days pull you down just like a (6)______________ ship
Floating is getting harder
But tread the water, child, and know that meanwhile

Days pull you up just like a daffodil
Uprooted (7)________ its garden
They'll tell you (8)________ you owe, but know (9)________ so
Rises the moon
You'll be visited by sleep
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To steal away (10)________ dream you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe
