Sweat in April (версия 2)

Verse

Tin roof hot off the afternoon sun

Dust on my ankles where the courtyard fun has run

Fourteen years old and I'm already done

Chasing girls through sprinklers till the orange turns to one

Popsicle sticks stuck down in my pocket deep

Neighborhood kids calling what they think is sleep

Screen door slapping back, a rhythm of its own

Summer's got me learning every single bone

Pre-Chorus

Is it over already? Do I want this song

To end before the porch light turns to stone

Nineteen more weeks but right now it feels like none

I'm already leaving, I can feel it in my bones

Chorus

Sweat in April, we don't know how to keep it

Skin still warm from a summer no one sleeps

Ice melts fast on the sidewalk, just like that

Sweat in April, we don't want this to stop at all

Verse 2

Kissing you by the fence where the cicadas hiss

Your hand in mine is faster than a summer wish

Sixth of July and the whole town's lit up gold

Nobody's checking what the calendar holds

Screen door creaking like it's singing too

Fireflies blinking slow, we got this, me and you

Radio catching static from a station far away

We dance anyway, even though it don't obey

Pre-Chorus

Is it over already? Do I want this song

To end before the porch light turns to stone

Nineteen more weeks but right now it feels like none

I'm already leaving, I can feel it in my bones

Chorus

Sweat in April, we don't know how to keep it

Skin still warm from a summer no one sleeps

Ice melts fast on the sidewalk, just like that

Sweat in April, we don't want this to stop at all

Bridge

Maybe ending's what makes it worth the burn

Rooftop sunsets turn to something learned

I'm not holding onto something that won't stay

This summer's mine before I fade away

Chorus

Sweat in April, we don't know how to keep it

Skin still warm from a summer no one sleeps

Ice melts fast on the sidewalk, just like that

Sweat in April, we don't want this to stop at all
