June, The Balloon

Mint is the flavour of the gum that she tucks in her cheek
We talk together and I smell it on her breath as she speaks
And her words are so sweet
June in the city is my favourite kind of weather
We go out in the morning and we walk together, her and me
Just to see what we'll see
Just the other mornin' we were in the park together
Someone there was strummin' a bum with his guitar
She turns to me and she said

How would it feel to be alive like that?
To never have to hurry up and wait
To sit out on a bench and sing a song like that
And never have to worry if it's great
Or if anyone hates you
'Cause no one here will ever remember your face
One day I'll run away but I hope that you'll stay, Lady

June was always leaving
I'd wake up and the world had grown warm
Without me saying, "It's time to move on"
And now whenever she's gone
The music in the morning isn't pretty
It's a pity that August in the city is hot and the tune is all wrong
It's not the same song that makes you

Feel like maybe you could be alive like that
To never have to hurry up or wait
To stand out in the rain and sing a song like that
And never have to wonder if you're great
Or if anyone hates you
'Cause June knows it doesn't really matter what they say
One day I'll run away, no, I never could stay

Mint is the flavour of the gum that I tuck in my cheek
Reminds me of her and summer and the taste is so sweet
Tastes like she's here with me and I still

Know how it feels to be alive like that
To never have to pine away and wait
Well, maybe it's not real but it's a love like that
That bites your lip and proves that you're great
'Cause June doesn't hate you
And June is just a New Year away

Maybe this time you'll stay, Lady

June is the music that my heart starts to drum when it beats
A song for her, how we were and the tune is so sweet
