Fields of Summer lyrics

I am fragile in the morning, I grow stronger in the day
I can sprint like a new spring doe by the fall of night
Love has chased me down through the cities and the towns
Until I stood beside the road and let it pass me by
Like a fool I've missed the rain 'cause I was crying

Then you are calling, call my heart, awake from years of slumber
And then I'm falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer
Can you hold me? Though I'm inclined to leave my home and wander
Oh, can you keep me like a child head over heel in fields of summer?

Fields of summer
Fields of summer
I am falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer

And now that you have caught me, are you sure you really want me?
Though I'm fragile as December on your shoulder in the dawn
And when the day has made me stronger, can you satisfy my hunger?
When the night has come and I would race the moon across the sky
Would you chase me through those open fields of summer?

Then you are calling, call my heart, awake from years of slumber
And then I'm falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer
Can you hold me? Though I'm inclined to leave my home and wander
Oh, can you keep me like a child head over heel in fields of summer?

Fields of summer, yeah
Fields of summer
I am falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer

Can you hold me?
Hold me?
Hold me?
Can you hold me?
Hold me?
Hold me?
I'm falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer
