Intro: x4
Verse 1:
in the tall grass of a long sun
a quiet repast and I m sweet nothings
come hell I m your lover your
man your friend your fair weather
it s a world stopped afternoon
passion legs your wordless
all blue routes to your birth
place chalk white wincing pretty in it
Interlude: x2
Verse 2:
summer dress your hair s wet
and gets into our kisses
can you tell why my intentions
wind up near misses
there s a kindness in your
smile but my sky plays fatal music
there s the promise and the
shell of great beginnings seldom finished
Chorus:
in the laze of a barefoot
afternoon, oh what s a boy to do?
Sunday eyes, am I losing you?
is the summer really through?
Verse 3:
straps down and overtired
if I had a favorite picture
I d call it right now
uncertain braced for your disaster
summer gown were you sent
down to wrestle me to reason
I m a thrown fight in your
favor I ll do everything
but listen to you now
Chorus 2:
in the laze of an empty afternoon
it s all happening too soon
Sunday eyes, am I losing you?
say it isn t true
Brdige:
/
in the summer you really know
that it doesn t feel like
the summer so much anymore
but I keep trying to find
you somewhere smiling
(hold)
over me over you over me
Piano Solo: x2, /
Verse 4:
summer girl all summer
long you know the winter s wrong
southbound those motel towns
can mend most broken mornings
there s citrus groves where
noone knows the fruit of truth from evil
and a long walk on a short pier
means nothing more than swimming here
Chorus 3:
there s an end but we don t
get to choose we can only lose
(hold)
if I cried a river just for you
would you swim in it
some sunny afternoon?
Outro:
/
in the summer you ll really know
you re the only summer that
I think I ll ever know
so I ll keep trying to
find you somewhere smiling
I ll keep trying to
find you smiling
(hold)
for me over you over me
