Dog Days Are Over

Is the weather finally shifting?
Did I actually feel a breeze tickle my cheeks?
Could we emerge from our air-conditioned den?
 Sunny with a touch of bearable.
That's right, child, go towards the shade.
Take a little rest.
Okay, Okay, Okay
You can go on the swings
for-EVER
That's more like it.
Sunshine and smiles.
"Happiness hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her - stuck still - no turning back
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled...
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
The horses are comin' so you better run.
Run fast for your mother; run fast for your father
Run for your children all your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive."
--Florence and The Machine
