Looking out my window,
Thinking ‘bout the life I knew.
Now I see it quickly fade from view.
Then I look around the cluttered charm
Of my cocoon.
My life is one long lazy afternoon.
Another perfect day with no one
Knocking at my door.
I don’t even listen anymore.
Hear the songs of birds outside.
It makes me think of June.
My life is one long lazy afternoon.
Oh, all my friends are gone,
But I’ll see them all
When things get better.
I love the silence of this quiet room.
Take me to that special place where
I don’t need to hide my face there, no.
I love this trip I’m on
‘Cause it goes beyond
What makes me better.
I had a dream of dancing in the rain.
Don’t you worry now, my friend,
‘Cause we will dance again.
Until then, I’ll keep myself away from all the news.
It doesn’t bring me nothing but the blues.
In a world of dissonance,
Well, I remain in tune.
My life is one long lazy afternoon.
