Summer Breeze
Type -O- Negative Lyrics

See the curtains hangin' in the window
Observing the curtains hanging in the window

Even on a Friday night
Noticing that the curtains are hanging despite it being a Friday night

A little light-a-shinin' in the window
Observing a faint light shining through the window

Lets me know everything's all right
The presence of the light brings a feeling of assurance and comfort

Summer breeze
Describing the sensation of a cool summer breeze

Makes me feel fine
Expressing how the summer breeze is having a positive effect

Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
Associating the summer breeze with the mental image of blooming jasmine flowers

See the paper layin' on the sidewalk
Noticing a newspaper lying on the sidewalk

Music from the house next door
Hearing music being played from a nearby house

So I walk on up to the door step
Approaching the neighbor's house

Through the screen and across the floor
Walking inside the house through the screen door

Sweet days of summer
Reflecting upon the enjoyable moments during summer

The jasmine's in bloom
Describing the blooming of jasmine flowers

July is dressed up and playing her tune
Personifying the month of July as playing a pleasing tune

When I come home
Returning home after a long day at work

From a hard day's work
Expressing the difficulty of the day at work

And you're waitin' there
Finding someone special waiting at home

Not a care
Feeling carefree and content

Not a care in the world
Feeling completely relaxed and free of worries

See the smile awaitin' in the kitchen
Noticing a happy smile on someone's face in the kitchen

Food cookin' and the plates for two
Observing a meal being prepared for two people

Feel your arms reachin' out to hold me
Feeling loved and embraced

In the evening when the day is through
Reflecting on the end of the day and the comfort of being with loved ones

Summer breeze, yeah
Reiterating the pleasant sensation of the summer breeze
