Will you hold my hand and walk with me
In the summer evening's laughter
In the shadow of the graveyard wall
Where we dreamt our world cup dreams
In this solemn moment's glowing fire
When the children's' eyes lie sleeping
Our hearts ablaze with promise
In the evening's amber light

And close your eyes and tell me
If you think the feeling's real
'Cos it's summer now
Winter's just A dream

And we'll walk the line in silence
Stepping on the sleepers
Or tight-rope walking on the tracks
The circus is in town
When the sun goes down behind the mart
Let's imagine that hearing
The ghostly sounds and dancin'
From a carnival marque

And close your eyes and tell me
If you think the feeling's real
'Cos it's summer now
Winter's just A dream
And I'll walk you home
As darkness falls
When the chilly air grows colder
And you put on your jumper
You had tied around your shoulder
Where the tracks meet the horizon
They're close but not together
Though our steps slow down and shorten
Our strength builds up inside

And close your eyes and tell me
If you think the feeling's real
'Cos it's summer now
Winter's just A dream

And close your eyes and tell me
If you think the feeling's real
'Cos it's summer now
Winter's just A dream

Just a dream!
