昼下りの情事 (Love In The Afternoon)

As the old clock hands pass the symbol
The wind drifts away from the town
Shadows of red flowers spill down the street
We were walking together

Like a mirage appearing
Just like a dream I once had
Summer froze you and me in place

In the season where love feels near, I met you
A connection only we understand
Like a telepathy
The sweet, colored breeze
When it flows through this alley
The sky over the blue-gray town plays summer too

Conversations sink into iced coffee
The color of the milk blends in
My lover blurs beyond the glass
Like an old film

Leaving you under the sunshade
I’m heading out
To that distant town

In the season where love feels near, I met you
A connection only we understand
Like a telepathy
The sweet, colored breeze
When it flows through this alley

My body temperature at 36 degrees
Touching you in the heat of summer.
