when the sun
is high
I get up
from
my bed
I play
my favourite record
the volume turned down

drink
a glass of fresh water
and give
the cat
some milk
turn off the sound
of the news on telly
which I hate

some day
eventually
summer will come to an end
and if
we part
even so
I will survive
to see another autumn
I will survive
on my own
I will survive

god
is testing
me
this is a period
I have to go through I guess
my favourite
record
always
ends too fast

some day
eventually
summer will come to an end
I'll put on
a new shirt
and I will live
my
new life
I will live
all by myself
I will live

god
is testing
me
it is a period
I have to go through I guess
I won't be listening
to my favourite
record
for quite a while
until
another summer
comes
