lyrics

summer child
don't shine your eye on me
(no)

summer child
don't shine your eye on me
it's cold where i'm from and you might just
melt me down

so child
don't you burn me up
let me stay here ice cold

cause it's cold where i come from
what you want me from me babe

it's easy when you're made of stone
it's quiet when you're all alone
but summer rain, and summer storms
they follow behind you
tear up my home

i said
summer child
don't shine your eye on me
(no)

summer child
don't shine your light on me
it's cold where i'm from
and you might just
melt me down

it's cold where i come from
and it's what i'm made from
ice can't last in the sun

it's cold where i come from
and i'm the coldest one
and ice don't last in the sun

oh sunshine
don't shine on me
cause i'm cold
let me be

oh sunshine
don't shine on me
no, no, no

cause it's cold
where i'm from
and i'm the coldest one
ice don't last in the sun

yea it's cold
where i'm from
and i'm the coldest one
you know ice it can't last in the sun

it's cold
where i'm from
and i'm the coldest one
ice can't last in the sun

it's cold
where i'm from
and i'm the coldest one
ice don't last in the sun
