Adair Lyrics
it runs clear from your temple to your jawline
you'll tell me about all your thoughts right this minute
then I will tell you mine.
and I'm far away from where i used to be
but i got all my attention fixed on you
and you're flashing that smile at me.
we lean up against the car
i want to tell you what the sky has done to me
i want you to tell me who we are
'cause i see you raising the water to your lips
it's the blazing dead center of july
and i got all my hopes hung on one gorgeous promise
and you got the sunlight dancing on your eyes
and i'm far away from where i used to be
but i got all my attention fixed on you
and you're just where you said you'd be
just where you said you'd be






Beautiful song. maybe im a bit biased because its the me and my girlfriends song, but its just perfect.

This song... is like a deep breath to me. Kind of a break from the normal theme of dysfunctional couples... this song is about promises kept, love, and starting fresh. They've surely both had hard pasts... she bears the scar of hers... but all that matters is this moment for them. So beautiful. Definitely one of my favorites of John's.

beautiful lyrics. my favourite bit: i want to tell you what the sky has done to me / i want you to tell me who we are. i just love the way he says it

hmm.
i always thought that it was:
'the placid dead center of July'
not 'the blazed dead center of july'
am i wrong?

I looooove this one. I'm pretty positive he says blazing dead center of July.

It sounds like Blazing, unless he is saying placid with a weird emphasis.

yeah, i guess it is Blazing
i did just think he was saying placid with a weird emphasis, but blazing makes more sense. haha.
