A hot and windy August afternoon

Has the trees in constant motion

With a flash of silver leaves

As they're rocking in the breeze

The boy lies in the grass with one blade

Stuck between his teeth

A vague sensation quickens
A D
In his young and restless heart
G C
And a bright and nameless vision
G C
Has him longing to depart

And covers up his eyes.
