Keeping Me Awake

Summer, it came
 like a light across the highlands
 and we laid it down.
 You wore a dress
 made of light from the islands
 and we sent postcards home.
 In dying light
 this was not to be forgotten
 'cause we are the chosen few.
 Into the sea with the touch of softest cotton
 Beneath this angel moon
 Its been keeping me awake
 Leaving this behind was my first mistake
 and I'm not so strong
 to be satisfied by all the things I've done
 and the things it threw away.
 You wrote your name
 as we lay among the heather.
 What you left behind
 Following paths that would lead us both together
 Let us lose our minds
 Its been keeping me awake
 Leaving this behind was my first mistake
 and I'm not so strong
 to be satisfied by all the things I've done
 by the things it threw away.
 Summer, it fell
 and it coursed across the highlands
 and so quickly gone.
 Your faded dress for years now tied away and silent
 and the night's late lullaby
 has been keeping me awake.
 Leaving this behind was my first mistake
 and I'm not so strong
 to be satisfied by all the things I've done
 by all the things it threw away.
 By all the things it threw away
 By all the things it threw away
 By all the things it threw away
