Into the Summer Sky - Smoking Popes

When we were innocent and young

Before our song had yet been sung

The music started and our new born hearts got lost in this way

So we sang out as if we knew

To stop the world and melt with you

Was going to be the end of both of us some unhappy day

The love we knew was true, it did not die

It only grew into a butterfly

So let it fly

Into the summer sky

We took the treasure that we found

And drove it deep into the ground

To mark the loss we made across there out of two sticks and string

And as we dreamed in different beds

Without the soil over our heads

Without a single clue to what the light of morning might bring

The love we knew was true, it did not die

It only grew into a butterfly

So let it fly

Into the summer sky

Into the summer sky

Oh, oh oh

Ohhhhh

Ohhhhh

Ohh, ohh

The place we chose to lay our tomb

Was not a grave but a cocoon

We filled the years with hopeful tears

Until we could sing our song once more

And so the creature we became

With colored wings as bright as flame

Is more amazingly alive now than we ever were before

The love we knew was true, it did not die

It only grew into a butterfly

So let it fly

Into the summer sky

Into the summer sky

Ohh, ohh

Into the summer sky

Ahh, ahhhhh
