Long Summer Days

When I close my eyes she is sitting there Deep blue Denim, Sunkist hair Feet dangling from the dock, calling me by name Well, before we knew it we was jumping in Way deeper than we've ever been Then making our way to sweet spot under the shade Every time I go down on the river And watch those ripples wash away I can't help but curse September for stealing her away The memories just don't fade like those long summer days, oh yeah Yeah, we were laying the low, the moon was getting high Yankee Doodle Dandy and American Pie I was stoking the fire and the heat was coming on strong Yeah, we were popping tops and telling tales Strumming my guitar, Lord it never fails We were there all night but it didn't take long Every time I go down on the river And watch those ripples wash away I can't help but curse September for stealing her away 'Cause the memories just don't fade like those long summer days I can't rewind the days I know But if I could that's where I'd go Every time I go down on the river And watch those ripples wash away I can't help but curse September for stealing her away The memories just don't fade like those long summer days Like those long, long summer days Yeah, we were laying low the moon was getting high Long, long summer days
