Summer Rain
Your skin will sizzle
as I drizzle
this sweet
summer day.
Twirl and dance,
sashay and spin.
Let my drops
drip down your chin.
Sing and shake.
Laugh and play.
Run about and
shout
“HOORAY!”
I excite and delight
Then -
You know what I’ll do?
I’ll make a rainbow
just for you.
as I drizzle
this sweet
summer day.
Twirl and dance,
sashay and spin.
Let my drops
drip down your chin.
Sing and shake.
Laugh and play.
Run about and
shout
“HOORAY!”
I excite and delight
Then -
You know what I’ll do?
I’ll make a rainbow
just for you.
