[00:28.460]summer stretching on the grass
[00:32.200]summer dresses pass
[00:35.690]in the shade of a willow tree
[00:38.780]creeps a crawling over me
[00:41.930]over me and over you
[00:45.230]stuck together with god's glue
[00:48.380]it's going to get stickier too
[00:51.620]it's been a long hot summer
[00:54.640]let's get under cover
[00:57.820]don't try to think it out
[01:00.390]don't think at all
[01:03.300]you're not the only one
[01:06.320]staring at the sun
[01:09.920]afraid of what you'd find
[01:12.450]if you took a look inside
[01:16.550]i'm not just deaf and dumb
[01:19.190]staring at the sun
[01:22.360]i'm not the only one
[01:25.450]who'd rather go blind
[01:30.860]
[01:36.920]there's an insect in your ear
[01:40.800]if you scratch it won't disappear
[01:43.220]it's going to itch and burn and sting
[01:46.350]you wanna see what the scratching brings
[01:49.560]waves that leave me out of reach
[01:52.970]breaking on your back like a beach
[01:56.289]will we ever live in peace
[01:59.479]'cause those that can't do
[02:02.460]often have to
[02:05.520]and those that can't do
[02:08.130]often have to preach
[02:11.640]to the ones
[02:13.580]staring at the sun
[02:16.640]afraid of what you'll find
[02:19.990]if you took a look inside
[02:24.100]i'm not just deaf and dumb
[02:26.310]staring at the sun
[02:29.510]i'm not the only one
[02:32.670]who'd rather go blind
[02:38.960]
[02:56.410]intransigence is all around
[02:59.300]military still in town
[03:02.480]armour plated suits and ties
[03:05.520]daddy just won't say goodbye
[03:08.890]referee won't blow the whistle
[03:11.770]god is good but will he listen
[03:14.960]i'm nearly great
[03:16.860]but something missing
[03:18.120]i left it in the duty free
[03:24.260]but you never really belonged to me
[03:28.690]and i'm not the only one
[03:31.900]staring at the sun
[03:34.920]afraid of what you'd find
[03:38.160]if you took a look inside
[03:41.390]i'm not just deaf and dumb
[03:44.840]staring at the sun
[03:47.850]not the only one
[03:51.300]who'd rather go blind
