lyrics

there’s a rumble in the floor
when you play with your golden curls
there's a boy next door
on the other side of the world

i saw you in the blizzard snow
you weren't wearing a coat
just your summer clothes

but there wasn't any blue in you
what do i do with your sunny hue?
it wasn't til june
you finally threw the ice into the lake
where is the green you grew?
what do i do with your dummy clues?
I thought you could move
the autumn leaves without a rake

weathering boy
i wanna see you peek your head
why are you so coy?
the oceans freeze when you stay in bed
are you dead? are you dead?

i saw a metal dripping from the sky
the floating head balloons perusing by
your weather’s coming true

if you cry a candle will fly
through the ruins of old
Summertime should never be time
to only do what you’re told

and every boy will find a tree to die on
so if i see you ride away on the fawn
i’ll fall in love with you
to leave you be
to put the leaves on the tree

i don’t know if ever i’ll know
what to do with the snow
no more lights
the neighbors just fight
for the igloo below

they dug for miles to find the groundhog
so if i see you in just one more dawn
i’ll fall in love with you
so these snowy plains
will wash away in the rain
