A young child describes his life in the city with only summer as a season.And the sadness.
We never saw the start of spring
We never smelt the flowers
We only saw the city streets
And burning city towers

We never felt the cool of dawn
We only felt the rain
Just frozen tiny silver drops
Melting on the pane.

No jumping rope or lemonade,
Our lives are such a bummer
A year of burning searing heat
A year of only summer.
