The Summer

This summer
we listened to the melodic drone of the lawn mowers every day

we kept cool in every body of water we could find

and we spent our evenings cuddling.
I like this routine...
I think we should keep it in place

"Til the summer comes undone."

Daddy's Girl

"When the sun goes down and it's getting late
You say it's time for bed
She just takes her time
Acting like she never heard a word you said

Little baby wanna hold you tight
She don't ever wanna say good night
She's a lover, she wanna be daddy's girl

She don't ever wanna be without you
Never have to worry she won't doubt you
Then she puts her head upon your shoulder
Says she'll marry you when she get older

She'll always be Daddy's Girl
She'll always be Daddy's Girl
She'll always be Daddy's Girl
She'll always be Daddy's Girl
She'll always be Daddy's Girl
She'll always be Daddy's Girl"
--Peter Cetera
