| [00:15.74] |
I was in your presence for an hour or so |
| [00:19.85] |
Or was it a day? I truly dont know. |
| [00:22.72] |
|
| [00:23.67] |
Where the sun never set, where the trees hung low |
| [00:27.56] |
By that soft and shining sea. |
| [00:29.78] |
|
| [00:31.96] |
Did you respect me for what I did |
| [00:34.14] |
|
| [00:35.42] |
Or for what I didnt do, or for keeping it hid? |
| [00:39.09] |
|
| [00:40.10] |
Did I lose my mind when I tried to get rid |
| [00:43.88] |
Of everything you see? |
| [00:45.18] |
|
| [00:46.99] |
In the summertime, ah in the summertime, |
| [00:54.52] |
In the summertime when you were with me. |
| [01:01.09] |
|
| [01:18.55] |
I got the heart and you got the blood, |
| [01:21.00] |
|
| [01:21.92] |
We cut through iron and we cut through mud. |
| [01:24.98] |
|
| [01:26.23] |
Then came the warnin that was before the flood |
| [01:29.81] |
That set everybody free. |
| [01:31.74] |
|
| [01:33.97] |
Fools they made a mock of sin, |
| [01:36.35] |
|
| [01:37.89] |
Our loyalty they tried to win |
| [01:40.66] |
|
| [01:42.08] |
But you were closer to me than my next of kin |
| [01:44.87] |
|
| [01:45.75] |
When they didnt want to know or see. |
| [01:47.95] |
|
| [01:48.71] |
In the summertime, ah in the summertime, |
| [01:56.16] |
|
| [01:56.74] |
In the summertime when you were with me. |
| [02:02.97] |
|
| [02:20.77] |
Strangers, they meddled in our affairs, |
| [02:23.36] |
|
| [02:25.00] |
Poverty and shame was theirs. |
| [02:28.34] |
But all that sufferin was not to be compared |
| [02:30.87] |
|
| [02:31.65] |
With the glory that is to be. |
| [02:33.78] |
|
| [02:36.01] |
And Im still carrying the gift you gave, |
| [02:38.54] |
|
| [02:39.79] |
Its a part of me now, its been cherished and saved, |
| [02:42.41] |
|
| [02:43.70] |
Itll be with me unto the grave |
| [02:46.00] |
|
| [02:47.43] |
And then unto eternity. |
| [02:49.40] |
|
| [02:50.50] |
In the summertime, ah in the summertime, |
| [02:57.45] |
|
| [02:58.50] |
In the summertime when you were with me. |
| [03:05.82] |
