In Summer Lightning Lyrics by Talis Kimberley

Ancient Sky

1996

[Verse:]
Tell the sky to turn a blind eye
Unnamed trees will hide us
East wind, be a good friend
Don't let the North wind find us
We're playing old, old games
Playing by old old rules
March has its madness, for sure
But May has its share of fools
[Chorus:]
All we are is summer lightning
All we know is passion fire
All we wear are summer shadows
Coloured by our own desire
Overland a storm is brewing
And it's bound to catch us soon
Oh my lover, you are the lightning
And you're piercing the moon ...
[Verse:]
Sky and air, we don't care
There isn't the time to wonder
Air and skin, let the play begin
To a roll of summer thunder
There's gonna be so much rain
Not for a while, not yet
There's gonna be so much storm
But I don't mind getting wet
[Chorus:]
All we are is summer lightning
All we know is passion fire
All we wear are summer shadows
Coloured by our own desire
Overland a storm is brewing
And it's bound to catch us soon
Oh my lover, you are the lightning
And you're piercing the moon ...
[Verse:]
Well, well, so who's gonna tell?
There's nobody here but us, my love
Let's dance while we have the chance
To celebrate who we are, my love
Fair's fair, if the piper's not there
We get to make the tune
Fair weather's a fine thing for sure —
But this is a stormy June:
[Chorus:]
All we are is summer lightning
All we know is passion fire
All we wear are summer shadows
Coloured by our own desire
Overland a storm is brewing
And it's bound to catch us soon
Oh my lover, you are the lightning
And you're piercing the moon ...
Piercing the moon
