Sun is burning on the pavement
Feels like time is slowly melting
But the moment I breathe in
Something cool begins within
Shadows stretch beneath the trees
Like they’re saving space for me
Even in the hottest day
I find a breeze along the way
No machines or heavy sound
Just the world that hums around
Every whisper in the heat
Turns to rhythm in my feet
Cool shade in the heat
Pulls me in with gentle ease
Every heartbeat starts to breathe
Like the summer sets me free
Cool shade in the heat
Where the quiet feels so sweet
Even when the sun won’t fade
I can find my own cool shade
Sweat is running down my shoulder
But my mind is growing colder
As the cicadas hum a tune
Underneath the lazy noon
Simple echoes from the street
Turn to music soft and sweet
I don’t need a louder scene
Just a place where I feel clean
Nothing fancy, nothing bright
Just the warmth in softer light
Let the sunshine do its thing
While my heart begins to sing
Cool shade in the heat
Pulls me in with gentle ease
Every heartbeat starts to breathe
Like the summer sets me free
Cool shade in the heat
Where the quiet feels so sweet
Even when the sun won’t fade
I can find my own cool shade
If the day gets hard to take
I’ll step back for my own sake
Even burning skies can be
Something calm inside of me
Cool shade in the heat
Where my worries feel complete
In the middle of the noon
I find comfort like a tune
Cool shade in the heat
Simple moments taste so sweet
Even when the world feels loud
I stay cool beneath the cloud
