Lyrics Michael Franks – Dragonfly Summer

Deep in July
Counting clouds floating by
Keeps us busy
The mockingbird’s song

How we thrive deep in dragonfly summer
Our new swimsuits have hardly been worn
We revive deep in dragonfly summer
Celebrating the day you were born

Let the world wait
While we procrastinate
It’s too hot now

There will be time
To wake up, toe the line
But it’s not now

In the pool deep in dragonfly summer
Zero gravity tempts us again
Staying cool deep in dragonfly summer
Is a hardship I hope will not end

And the heat deep in dragonfly summer
Drives the tourists away, we’re alone
I repeat deep in dragonfly summer
We’re in paradise right here at home

Deep in dragonfly summer
