Summer Summer Night

Early in the evening
With the sun set low
Calling everybody
Everybody I know
There’s gonna be some time
With the bright moon shine

Jimmy loves a girl
He’s gonna ask her to go down
Underneath the stars
Saying, “Hurry, it’s gonna be alright”
Whatcha gonna do on a Summer Summer Night

You and me we’ll build a fire on the beach
I’ll bring the songs, you bring the whisky
Down to the river where the river runs free
We’ll love it if we let ourselves go
And we won’t come home
Until the morning glows
So let your colours show
We’ll love it if we let ourselves go

I’ve got an old guitar
I’m gonna pass it around
Jimmy’s gonna sing
About a dirty old town
With that girl in his eye
And hope it makes her smile

And we can dream a little
In the middle of the sweet sound
Of the melody we’re making
When the sun is going down
In the twilight
Whatcha gonna do on a Summer Summer Night

So don’t be shy, let the stars collide
We’re all the same in the firelight
These days are so few, I know it’s true
I only get so many Summer Summer Nights
With you
