Summer

Four leaf clovers on your mind We searched the whole time for good luck to press between the lines Sun went down by 8pm But I'm not going home yet Cold sweat and cigarettes The sprinklers wash away The chalk from yesterday And mom's coming home late Turn the night light on and wait Blue as far as eyes can go Don't rock the boat You know I can't swim in the undertow Slack the line and get freer Or sink down deeper Down here where nothing's clear Drive far, far away Lost in yesterday And mom's coming home late Leave the porch light on and wait
