She looks like summer dressing up for spring.
She is every color she is everything.
I'm no earthly match for the garden she keeps.
I can't hope to catch all the tears that she'll weep when she's dying to fall.
She laughs like summer looking back at spring.
She is every color of the tears that she'll weep when she's dying to fall.
Chorus 1:
She's why I'm carving my name in the sun.
Until her attention is mine I'm carving my name in the sun
I'm carving my name in the sun
If she looks into me on my honor, she will not go blind.
The name that I am carving is kind.
She lives like summer imitating spring.
She is any color of anything.
She moves with such ease she's a somersault's dream.
I can't hope to breathe what she could use to season me.
But there's nothing she sees in me.
Nothing but this knife that's never known a stone.
Nothing but this life that's never known a home.
Chorus 2:
I'm still alone in the sun.
Until her attention is mine I'm carving my name in the sun.
I'm carving my name in the sun.
If she looks into me on my honor, she will not go blind.
The name that I am carving is kind.
She looks like summer(I'm carving my name in the sun) repeat 3 times
I'm carving my name in the sun(repeat 3 times)
