lirik lagu seanan mcguire – phantoms of summer [live]
[intro]
woodside drive, an hour after sunset
see the ghosts of a summer’s day
heat mirages that waver and whisper
“come away, child, come away
to a time when you were younger
and less wise than you are now…”
i watch the blacktop phantoms of summer
and wish i could follow them somehow
[verse]
i was a little white girl in a little white dress
just like a little white bird in an eggsh~ll
i told some little white lies, i did my little white best
i was a little bit flawed, but i meant well
and i spent my nights at the edge of the wood catching fireflies
little white stars that i could hold in my hand
that had never quite finished falling out of the skies
and i wished on every single one, before i let it go
did i get what i wished for?
only me and the fireflies need to know
[verse]
i was a little bit good, i was a little bit bad
i was a little more than they expected
i was a little bit strange, i was a little bit sad
i thought the wood and the world were connected
and each day the sun rose over the trees, and my world went on
this was forever, the woods and the sky
and i never believed that one day, this could be gone
and i wished on every single day, before i let it go
did i get what i wished for?
only me and the setting sun need to know
[chorus]
see the phantoms of summer dance and fl!cker in the night
little fires that start to fade the moment they ignite
make a wish on a firefly star
they burn so brief, they burn so bright
like the phantoms of summer dancing lonely in the night
[verse]
i was a little bit lost, i was a little bit found
i was the daughter of joy and of sorrow
i was the shadow a cloud throws on holy ground
and i was running full~speed towards tomorrow
and one day i came to the edge of the world that i’d always known
summer was fading like a ghost in the trees
if i went any further, it would be on my own
and i wished upon the summertime, before i let it go
did i get what i wished for?
only me and the ghosts of the summer need to know
[chorus]
see the phantoms of summer dance and fl!cker in the night
little fires that start to fade the moment they ignite
make a wish on a firefly star
they burn so brief, they burn so bright
like the phantoms of summer dancing lonely in the night
[verse]
the blacktop phantoms of summer
call and call and call us home
come to the woods, come to the water
come together, come alone
hear the blacktop phantoms of summer
call us, call us through the years
come fill your hands with starlight and fireflies
come find your heart, come find your heart
come find your heart, you left it here
you left it here, i left you here
[outro]
woodside drive, an hour after sunset
see the ghosts of a summer’s day
heat mirages that waver and whisper
“come away, child, come away…”
