Our childhood summers
So warm in our memories
When they were all pretty rainy
In reality

We all head out to the sea
When we finally can
So we’re spending the most
Of a good day
In a traffic jam

We’re counting the grains
Of the sand, of the sand
Know it won’t last
Let’s enjoy it while we can
And reach for the stars
With our hands, with our hands
Wait for the sky
To start falling down on our heads again

We’re from a place 
Where it rains far more than it shines
But we can all not afford to
Waste a lot of time

There is a short flash of light
A sudden summer breeze
In between darkness 
That lasts for two eternities
