One More Summer Like That

 

Verse One

Read all day in the shade of the weeping willow;
skin your knees on the bark of the apple tree.
Run to the swing
where your bare feet wore the grass away

I want to have just one more summer like that!

Verse Two

Lakeside: sunbeams squirming on the
water’s edge, the dock’s legs peeling red.
Rush down the rutted road back to the
windowpane glow

I want to have just one more summer like that!

(Instrumental bridge)

Verse Three

Spin like a pinwheel until you fall down.
Stand up, but the world’s still whirling around.
Rush down the rutted road back to the
windowpane glow

I want to have just one more summer like that!
