Doug McKean - Suddenly Summer Lyrics

Hear those motors running
Now we've had our silent spring
As the world moved on
While we didn't do a thing
It's suddenly summer
And it feels like something major
Our eyes as bright
As quarantine agers

It's suddenly summer
And the kids are making lemonade
Step out into the world
As the mountains start to fade

It's suddenly summer
Someday fall could come sudden too
As the birds and the bees and the flowers and trees
Tell us how we grew

Sheltered and we distanced
Surrendered our dominion
Left the fate of the world
Subject to opinion
It's suddenly summer
We've communed with the gods and the spirits
Left a tree to fall
With no one to hear it
