Dog Days Lyrics - Singles - Amy Speace

The man in the moon is a woman in disguise 

Behind the mask she has summer in her eyes 

The night air hangs thick the crickets fade 

From east to west the evenings on parade 

Red sun, yellow moon green grass, breathing room 

Lay me in my childhood bed dream of better days 

Red sun yellow moon green grass breathing room 

Lay me in my childhood bed 

The alleys lined in barrel fires 

Burning leaves, black smoke spirals 

We married young In our mothers lace 

With promise rings To hold a place 

Red sun yellow moon green grass breathing room 

Lay me in my lovers bed 

Red sun yellow moon green grass breathing room 

Lay me in my lovers bed dream of dog days 

Got my shoes off with the mud 

between my toes 

Dont forget to dress me in my Sunday clothes 

I could count the afternoons left on my hand 

Let it all begin again 

Can you hear the carousel 

the tractor hum the catholic bells 

We run toward our slowing down 

Ill never leave this Lackawanna town 

Red sun yellow moon green grass breathing room 

Lay me in my childhood bed 

Red sun yellow moon green grass breathing room 

Lay me in my lovers bed 

Red sun yellow moon green grass breathing room 

Lay me in my final lay me in my final lay me in my final bed
