Lyrics
The Summer Lands
Lets you and I go down to the river once again
where you and I try to drown in forever at the end
and no one will believe us if we go, back to the minute that we chose
to take a long and lonely road but that's the way the story goes,
not the way the story ends, I'm going to the summer lands again
That's the way this story goes you'll never feel the curtain close
We're going to the summer lands again
Lets you and I go back to a minute long ago
Close your eyes and sit back till you're in it and you know
and no one here will see us when we go, back to the summer land we know.
We'll stop and take a look around and see we stand on sacred ground, and that's the way the story ends.
I'm going to the summer lands again.
That's the way this story goes you'll never feel the curtain close
there's something that you really want to know
Lets you and I go down to the river on the other side of town lets you and I go deep to the secrets that you've sworn yourself to keep
beckoning my dear old friend going to the summer lands again
