Last day in May, the afternoon: remember?
Black marks off charcoal from the dune: remember?
I thought it wouldnât be too soon; weâd wait at least until it's June.
The twenty-ninth of March it rained: remember?
You looked so sad that I explained: remember?
You knew it wouldnât be too soon; weâll have to wait until it's June.
Iâve been waiting since I donât know when and now it finally seems about to start.
I swear, I swear, that I will do my part.
December dark at six oâclock: remember?
The freezing wind gives you a shock: remember?
You knew it wouldnât be too soon; weâll have to wait until it's June.
October damp on down the street: remember?
The sodden leaves stuck to your feet: remember?
You knew it wouldnât be too soon; weâll have to wait until it's June.
Iâve been waiting since I donât know when and now it finally seems about to start.
I swear, I swear, that I will do my part.
July the third we stayed up late: remember?
And thought how long weâd have to wait: remember?
Itâll be so long until itâs soon; itâll be so long until it's June.
