about

this song is about an afternoon I spent at a family reunion with my little cousin Sophia.

lyrics

Sophia you're so pretty
you are just five years old
your teeth are coming in good
your hairs so curly
whispering secrets to you

wearing water wings
and swimming in the pool
she's quick to point out
the heavy heat
she drinks juice
and i drink beer
the endless magic of her age
the endless magic of her age

the dragonfly
she caught from the sky
she was fanning everybody
with it's wing
yes, Sophia
your the coolest breeze
summer has ever seen

Sophia you're so pretty
i guess i'll go and say it once again
she fluttered and flopped
then everything just stopped
dazed is the earth of her taking
dazed is the earth of her taking

taking it

to the sky
there she fly's
she's fanning everybody
with her wings
yes, Sophia you're the coolest breeze
summer has ever seen
yes, Sophia you're the coolest breeze
summer has ever seen.
