Lyrics
Shiver © 1999 words and music by Laura McCandliss
Verse 1:
You pack your winter bags for the season, along with winter's memory.
Strange to know that's exactly what you've done with me.
The cold begins to vanish, and more flesh shows with the sun,
And I need you more than ever, but off you run, and off you run.
Chorus:
And I shiver in summer's clothes, in summer's clothes I shiver.
You know that the summer's lust isn't what I can deliver,
When the winter's cold wind blows
I'm the only one who cares or knows,
Until then, I shiver, in summer's clothes.
Verse 2:
I don't need a long explanation to know how you'll react,
Just let me know when the climate's cold enough for you to come back.
You won't see me in my igloo, waiting for the snow to fall,
And I won't answer when you call, when you call, when you call?
(Chorus)
Bridge:
You're gone, and when the summer goes, you're here, saying your back to stay.
Do you think, I was born yesterday, a newborn, in summer's clothes,
?.In summer's clothes. (ad lib and out)
