“Fireworks this Sunday?” you said
Messages buzzing from coworkers
If you showed up in a summer dress
How should I say you look beautiful?
I’m overthinking again, right?
Pretending I don’t care, but I’m nervous
I couldn’t sleep last night
Seeing you not dressed up
Made me feel relieved, because…
I want you all to myself
At the summer festival, I fall for you
In a white dress
Flowers of light bloom in the darkening sky
Just a little different from “everyday”
That quiet ache pierced my heart
It feels like I’m inside a dream
But you’re really here
Right in front of me, smiling
I don’t need anything else
You are enough
Blending into the noisy crowd
I watch you laugh with candied fruit
If we could end up alone here
My summer would shift into a higher gear
Trying to look cool, I wave you closer
Whisper softly by your ear
You nod and smile
Your reply comes back
“I’ve been waiting”
Confused, I fall for you again
That expression on your face
Even the fireworks fade away
So no one notices
Let’s run away just a little
When our hands meet
Everything begins
There’s no brake
When love overtakes us
I’m sure we’ll end up
Lips gently touching
I’m trying to stay calm, but
These feelings keep accelerating
I see only you
Only you
Just meeting your eyes
Makes me burn right now
I’ve claimed you
At the summer festival, I fall for you
I can see it clearly
A love-flower blooms in the pitch-black sky
Just a little different from “everyday”
That quiet ache pierced my heart
It feels like I’m inside a dream
But you’re really here
Right in front of me
Smiling
I don’t need anything else
You’re the only one I want
