Oh, I went up straight 
Oh, I went upstate 
Where I heard about a boy 
A boy 

Calm and tranquil now 
And we engineer 
Something open wide 
Some place people hide 
I stare 

Makes me dream sometimes 
Makes me dream sometimes 
I dream 
I stare 
I stare 

And when your summer ends 
When you're on your last legs 
That time can't mend 
Will you still bring or fake a smile? 
Will we grant you the mercy and the love you require? 
These are the things that I must abide 

And when your summer ends
