Lyrics Into the Summer Sky - Smoking Popes

Into the Summer Sky

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
