Getting High in Dubai - Goodbye to Fireflies
The streets are alive
With stray dogs barking
Fireflies and fireworks
Mountain sky is filled with lightening
Girls hold hands in rainbow skirts
Lovers embrace on their porch steps
Palm trees bow to the wind
Next door a teenage girl is crying
She said she was in love with him
A certain sadness drapes the summer's ending
Silent goodbye to the lazy calm
No more swimming drunk in reservoirs
Impulsive tattoos on our arms
Goodbye to fireflies
Stoned lazy days and humid nights
Time for the birds to fly south
The very last kiss
On her watermelon mouth
So much for our anticipation
Swallowed by November frustration
Days grow shorter at summer's end
Children say farewell to campground friends
A return to teachers who hate our guts
Overbearing bosses who drive us nuts
September taunts us with what could have been
Allegorical summers rust like tin
Goodbye to fireflies
Stoned lazy days and humid nights
Time for the birds to fly south
The very last kiss
On her watermelon mouth
Goodbye to fireflies
Stoned lazy days and humid nights
Time for the birds to fly south
The very last kiss
On her watermelon mouth
