Summer Song
Equatronic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and the last green fades
into red
Sundays are dying
silent death
and the warm nights are
getting colder each night
bright night
stay on and guide me on
my way back home
summer's just gone
and the last butterfly flies away
flowers are saying
silent goodbye
and only bare trees are
standing beside the road
Sibyl of the summer
put your autumn hair
onto the ground
and guide me with your
summer eyes
to the transition of the seasons

The only thing that remains are the bare trees that stand beside the road. The Sibyl of the summer is then called upon to put her autumn hair onto the ground and guide the singer with her summer eyes to the transition of the seasons.
